Uncommitted, 5-foot-7, 140-pound, well-proportioned catcher. Hit in the three-hole and caught. Defensively, steady, reliable defender with the ability to present pitches and stick pitches in and around the zone. Willing blocker and his arm played accurately, true and repeatable out of the crouch. Routinely popped 2.12 in between innings and also had a 2.12 in game on a steal attempt. Offensively, right-handed hitter, stays within himself, uses the whole field and rarely chases out of the zone. Had a ground ball single down the first base line, struck out and grounded to third base; 4.58 down the line.

Arm: RH. C - 66 mph. INF - 69 mph. Short, over-the-top arm action from behind the plate. From the infield; possesses a clean 3/4 arm action.
Defense: 2.27-2.40 pop times. Sure-handed receiver of the baseball with quick/athletic feet out of the crouch. On the infield; soft hands with a clean transfer, fluid footwork and easy range to both sides.
