Aven

06/03/18- The catcher, who is the son of head coach of American Heritage Bruce Aven, has really continued to improve and stood out defensively. Worked under the baseball and showed advanced receiving skill and overall feel for the position. Offensively, the swing works, timing was off and will be a high follow as he gains at-bats.

08/15/17- 5-foot-10, 175 pound catcher a stocky build with a strong lower half. Defensively, he has a slightly high setup and could improve the transfer to release, but shows quality footwork and a strong accurate arm with a pop time of 2.0. Offensively, the right handed hitter uses his strong lower half well It is a simple swing, that is direct to the ball. He consistently found the barrel with line drives from gap to gap.
