Jimbo
Gaines

Jimbo Gaines is a young lean framed 2022 catcher from Cartersville High School.  He checked in at 5-foot-11, 140-pounds. Gaines has a good looking frame that is projectable and will add strength with more maturity.  In the batters box he has quiet, sound approach and when working the middle of the field was consistently getting hard line drive contact.  The bat projects well with this young hitter. He shows good flexibility behind the plate, drops to a knee on receiving the baseball, good hands and receives well.  His arm stroke is very compact and short and projects well with strength. As he works on his stance behind the plate, look for Gaines to turn himself into a very capable backstop with a good approach. Strong follow for this 2022.
