C Tanner Beyna (St. Viator, 2027) is an intriguing switch-hitting catcher to know in the state. From the left side, he showed a short and flat swing that is easy with a line-drive approach, flashing backspin at times. From the right side, it was a similar look with some feel to lift up the middle with backspin, peaking at 97 mph for his EV (T360’). Quality actions behind the plate with clean/quick transfers and a strong arm, peaking at 78 mph from the chute with a pop-time down to 2.01 seconds.

Uncommitted, 5-foot-8, 140-pound frame. Started at second and batted in the seven-hole for Saint Viator in the 4A Deerfield Regional Semifinal. Beyna came up clutch in the seventh inning by sending a single back up the middle to bring in the winning run, completing the late comeback for the Lions. Operated from a wider stance with loose, rhythmic hands that transitioned into a flat, direct path. Showcased his bat-to-ball skills in the game, finishing the day 2-for-4 with a pair of singles. Defensively, handled second base with steady actions throughout the contest. Intriguing 2027 middle infielder to keep an eye on.
