5-foot-10, 160-pound right-handed hitting catcher and pitcher. On the mound, the fastball sat 81-82 mph with arm side action to it. The spin pitch was 70-71 mph and solid in shape. The changeup is a pitch that is still developing for him. The delivery is online with the feet and the slot is above 3/4 in height. The lift is solid in tempo and he gathers at the top. The direction of the top half comes offline as he shows a good amount of pull to the first base side. Positionally, he ran a 7.43 sixty at the event. He threw 77 mph from behind the dish down to second base with a pop time of 2.1. The feet can continues to improve as he matures in age. The bat has an exit velocity of 80 mph. The setup is even in base and the front foot steps into the swing. The path is long to contact and he displayed a 1-handed release after contact with the baseball. The need for physical strength gains are warranted.

Catching Velocity- 77 mph
Pop Time - 2.1
The 5-foot-9, 160 pound right-handed hitting catcher had a tee exit velocity of 72 mph. The stance is open and narrow. He gets into a good hitting position and made a lot of solid contact to the pull side. He also ran a 7.7 sec 60.Behind the plate, the transfer from glove to hand is good, showing a velocity down to second base at 75 mph and a pop time of 2.3-2.4. The feet move well but the chest gets out in front causing him to get tall coming out. With a slight tweek, the arm strength will begin to show.As an infielder, the hands and arm strength show well. He was 72 mph across the diamond. The feet are deliberate but get into a good fielding position.On the mound, the delivery is clean and he gets down the mound well. The fastball sat 74-78mph with heavy sink. The breaking pitch had good spin and sat 65-67mph.

5-foot-8, 160 pound right handed hitting catcher. Threw 69 mph from behind the plate, pop time of 2.15. The stance balanced. The glove and feet transition well into the throwing position. The arm path is clean and in line with the target. The bat had a tee exit velocity of 72 mph. The set up was open and balanced. The load was knee to knee back to square and the hands moved back well. The stroke was flat through contact. The simple stroke produced a lot of line drives during his BP. Good looking young catcher. A guy to keep an eye on for sure.
