Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
5'10" 180 lbs. sturdy and durable frame. Clapinski continues to be a guy that performs in-game and just "gets the job done" each time that we see him. Last Thursday against Live Oak, he didn't have a hit, but turned in three quality at-bats. In the bottom of the first, he delivered a sacrifice fly to CF to put the Bears up 1-0. He hit a line drive right at the RF in his second at-bat and then blistered a line drive right at the third baseman in his third at-bat. Defensively, he continues to handle Catholic High's high-end arms well behind the plate, showing that he's a solid receiver and blocker. Clapinski has solidified himself as one of the top uncommitted players and for sure, one of the top uncommitted backstops, in the state of Louisiana.
"Clap" has always been a consistent in-game performer and is a guy who is "more than the sum of his parts" and plays above his overall tool set. Handling arguably the best staff in the state and the top pitcher in the state, in William Schmidt, the uncommitted backstop was impressive defensively all weekend, as he showed good receiving and blocking skills, and also threw out a runner in Game 3 on Saturday. At the plate, he continued to put together quality at-bats, but his biggest swing of the weekend came on Friday night in the bottom of the 1st, when he launched a two run homerun to left field to put the Bears up 4-0.

Positional Profile: C/3B
Body: 5-10, 180-pounds. Athletic.
Hit: RHH. Starts slightly open in an upright and balanced stance, uses a toe-tap load and stride. Really professional round of BP with little effort, stays inside the ball to contact with a short swing and slightly uphill extension with a two-handed finish, sprayed the ball from line to line and showed the ability to drive the ball in the gaps. 68.4 mph bat speed with 17 G’s of rotational acceleration.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 89.6 mph. 350' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-75 mph. INF-80 mph. Short AA with a 3/4 release.
Defense: 1.97-2.03 pop times. C: Solid receiver and blocker, really quick and clean transfer with athletic footwork almost like a MIF turning a double play, accurate throws to 2B bag. IF: Receives the ball clean and out front belly button left, presents glove early when using one hand, smooth actions when he had to move laterally and on the bounder play, versatile defender
ATH: 7.50 runner in the 60.
