2/21/21

5-foot-11, 175-pound right-handed hitting catcher. He is progressing very well in his development as his measurables keep rising. The skill set behind the dish is solid, throwing 78 mph down to second base with a pop time of 1.96. The feet work during the transfer and he shows good accuracy to his throws. The receiving is solid, soft and secures the catch. The bat has an exit velocity of 91 mph. The setup is even in base and he shows a pick up and put down of the front foot as the ball approaches the hitting zone. The path is flat to contact and he has good plate coverage. He is better each time we see him. 

Exit Velocity- 91 mph

Catching Velocity- 78 mph

Pop Time -1.96

5-foot-10, 155-pound right-handed hitting catcher. He ran a 7.31 sixty at the event. The approach and skill set behind the dish is solid, he threw 74 mph down to second base with a pop time of 2.0. The receiving is solid and he moves athletically behind the plate at all times. The bat has an exit velocity of 85 mph. The setup is even in base and the front foot steps into the swing as the ball approaches the hitting zone. The path is flat to contact and with the addition of physical strength the bat should develop nicely

5-foot-10, 155-pound right-handed hitting catcher. He ran a 7.63 sixty at the event. The skill set behind the dish is solid as he receives with confidence and shows good actions during the receiving. The pop time was 2.06 and he threw 72 mph down to second base with accuracy. The arm path is simple, short and clean. The bat has an exit velocity of 87 mph. The setup is even in base and the front foot steps into the swing as the ball approaches the hitting zone. The path is slightly uphill and the hands work freely. Adding strength to the frame will be imperative in his development.

7/01/20

5-foot-10, 155-pound, longer, thin, wiry strong athletic frame, longer neck, squared off shoulders, with room for added weight gains. A right-handed hitting catcher, at the plate, feet are even, just outside shoulder width. The hands are loose and relaxed at shoulder height, more of a flat setup. For timing uses a small, smooth leg kick, shifts weight to backside, gains ground with stride foot, hands are back on foot strike. The swing is level through the zone, rolls the hands late, stays through it on the backend. Front chest opens, creating a bit more to pull side, exit velocity was clocked at 86 mph and ran a 7.78 sixty-yard dash. Defensively, threw 72 mph down to second, with a pop time of 2.02-2.15. Looks to be very athletic in setup, glides through transfer, gaining ground. The arm works from a natural slot, smooth and clean. The hands are strong on the catch, moves well, gets behind the ball whrn receiving. Big follow for me.

Exit Velocity: 86 mph

Arm Velocity: 72 mph

Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.78

5-foot-10, 155-pound right-handed hitting catcher and infielder. Behind the dish he threw 75 mph down to second base with a pop time of 2.08. The feet and transfer are solid and with maturation should improve. The receiving of the pitches is solid. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 78 mph. The setup is athletic in base and the bottom half is under control. The path is long to contact. The frame needs additional strength to aid the development of his game.  Solid young catching prospect.
