5-foot-6, 125-pound, thin, smaller athletic frame, shoulders are squared off, actions and movements work well together. A right-handed hitting catcher, who worked off the mound as well, was one of the better younger players at this event. At the plate, stance is balanced throughout, feet start wider than shoulder width apart, hands held higher, bat more in a vertical position. For timing uses a toe tap, which he gains ground with the stride. The swing is down to level to up, finishes it off with two hands just above the shoulders. The approach is more middle to pull is aggressive and swings the bat with authority, tee exit velocity was clocked at 74 mph, will only improve over time. Defensively, has a wide setup behind the plate, feet are accurate and work well in transfer, gains ground, gets close up with target. The arm is short and clean throws from his ear, pop time of 2.47-2.56 and arm was clocked at 63 mph. The arm recoils slightly after release, needs to stay through it and finish it off, should help in arm speed/velocity. Off the mound, fastball was clocked at 63-66 mph, with the breaking ball at 51 mph, drops arm at times. The knuckleball was his top off speed pitch, showed depth and downward action, clocked at 54 mph. The delivery is controlled, has a smaller leg raise, direction is inline, could long out lead leg. Times to the plate were at 1.28-1.75. Projects for me with the bat and ability to work behind the dish, overall conditioning and strength will aid in his development.
