2/15/23

Charlie Meister (Hersey), who is also a talented football prospect, stood out during the catcher workout. Meister took one, if not the best, rounds of defense behind the plate on the entire day; working with a quick/clean transfer and active footwork that stays in-line with second, he regularly recorded pop-times under 2.00 seconds with a max catcher velocity of 79 mph. Meister also wields a strong right-handed bat with a heavy barrel and lift through the zone, resulting in hard gap-to-gap contact. Meister registered a 93.8 max exit velocity off the bat. 

2/11/23

Positional Profile: C
Body: 6-0, 190-pounds. Strong frame, broad shoulders with room for added muscle.

Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 88.1 mph.
Arm: RH. C - 79 mph. Short draw into an over the top slot, present arm speed, accurate to the bag.
Defense: 1.87-2.01 pop times. Quick transfer, athletic mover out of the crouch, gains ground, advanced blocker, squares up the baseball, reliable receiver.

Arm: RH. C - 77 mph. Loose, quick arm action. Works from a high 3/4 arm slot.

Run: 7.26 runner in the 60. 

2/26/22

Meister, in particular, averaged an exit speed of 91.1 mph which trailed just two other hitters, and his 80 percent hard-hit rate was in a similarly impressive tier of talent. 

2/12/22

Positional Profile: C/RHP
Body: 5-11, 175-pounds. Sloped shoulders. Well-proportioned frame.
Delivery: High effort, drop and drive delivery. Strong front side. Throws across body. Lands front toe closed. Falls off to the first base side of the rubber at times.
Arm Action: RH. Short, quick arm action. High 3/4 arm slot.
FB: T82.9, 81.9-82.8 mph. Straight, with intent to play on the outer third of the plate. T2111, 2082 average rpm.
CB: 71.7-72.9 mph. 11/5 to 10/4 shape. Tight spin. Late break. Able to locate for strikes or expand off the plate as an out pitch. T2169, 2105 average rpm.

Hit: RHH. Wide, athletic base, slight knee-knock into a long stride.  Present bat-strength, long/loose swing with a level path, controlled aggression throughout the swing.
Power: 91.5 max exit velocity, averaged 89 mph. 242’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 81 mph. High 3/4 arm slot, long windup action.
Defense: Plays through the baseball. Flashed ability to use the backhand. Confident.
Run: 4.31 runner home-to-first. 

6/06/21

Started on the mound for Lake County Lightning in game one of the PBR at The Rock Championships against Ecompass Expos. Drop/drive type delivery, athletic stack at balance point, high hip prior to riding the slope downhill. Strong front side with level shoulders, stays directly in line to target, repeats well in rhythm with a controlled finish through release. Internal confidence on the mound; trusts his stuff. Short arm window, high ¾ slot. Worked three innings, where his fastball sat 77-81, T82 mph, some downhill action, works corners and lower quadrant of the zone. Curveball flashed sharp spin off an 11/5 plane at 69-72 mph, thrown for strikes. Ability defensively to play all over the field but looked most natural behind the plate where he is ultra quick and athletic out of the chute, for his age. Meister showed a plus arm with an in-game pop time of 2.08 on a caught stealing. Meister, a right-handed hitter, doubled twice in game two of the day.

3/08/20

Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 5-8, 140-pounds.
Defense: Active feet, two-hand gather.
Arm: RH. INF - 66 mph.  Short arm action, high 3/4 slot.
Hit: RH. Tall open setup, active pre-pitch movement, quick leg kick trigger.  Quick hands, uphill path, favored pull-side, flashed power potential.
Power: 82 mph exit velocity from the tee.
Run: 7.93 runner in the 60. 

Delivery: Steady tall/fall delivery, strong front side, lands square, in line with target. Smooth rhythm throughout.
Arm Action: RH. Short arm action, high 3/4 slot. Quick arm.
FB: T75, 73-74 mph. Clean out the hand. Flashed slight arm-side run. Strikes.
CB: 60-62 mph. 11/5 shape with tight spin. Breaks late.
CH: 59-62 mph. Plays with arm-side run. Best secondary pitch.
