An undersized, gamer - Berry showed well in multiple facets and continues to impress our staff. A 5-foot-9, 155 pounder, Berry has a compact swing, turning the barrel on a slightly uphill path to optimize hard contact. Berry is more impactful at the dish than the frame suggests, with his max exit velocity reaching 94.5 mph. He is a solid receiver behind the plate with above average mobility and sure hands. An instinctual player that we have seen show a strong ability to keep runners at bay in a game setting, Berry turned in pops that ranged from 1.98 - 2.05, with a 77 mph arm from the crouch.
