Everett
Bertsch

Bertsch jumped onto the scene in Vancouver at our Fall Open ID in October. At 6-foot-1, 190-pounds, Bertsch utilizes his physicality all over the field. Behind the dish he possesses both a strong arm and a quick transfer, collecting a POP time of 1.84 and velocity of 79 mph. In the box, Bertsch works back up the middle with controlled aggression, staying on a line consistently and reaching a max exit velocity of 90.3 mph. On the mound, he sits in the mid-80s with the fastball and possesses a tight slider in the mid-70s with two-plane break that he can spin at 2300 rpm. His athleticism and physicality will be something to follow when the season gets underway.

The uncommitted two way out of Coquitlam had one of the better overall days in Vancouver. It started on the mound where he sat 85-86 mph with the fastball that had carry when up in the zone. Mixed in a tight slider with 2-plane break at 74-76 mph that he could spin north of 2300 rpm. He finished it off with a changeup at 77-78 mph with arm side run and late fading action. At the plate, he consistently worked back up the middle maintaining controlled aggression and reaching a max EV of 90.3 mph. Behind the dish, he had the top catching numbers. Collecting a POP time of 1.84 and catcher velocity of 79 mph. Bertsch jumped onto the scene in Vancouver and will be an intriguing follow going forward.
