08.07.18
6 feet 1, 195-pound frame.  Strength is present.  Right hand hitter with a balanced setup.  Smooth back in his load with a short stride.  Gets his lower half through the ball with strength in his swing.  Looks to get extension with a line drive approach working mostly middle to pull side. Stiff hands cause the barrel to work in and out of the zone to quickly at times.  Above average bat speed with an exit velocity at 87 mph.  Quick feet behind the plate, with quick, clean exchanges.  Short arm action, throwing from a high ¾ slot with some accuracy to his throws.  Pop times recorded at 2.05-2.18. Positional velocity peaked at 76 mph.  Plays hard in game and bounces around behind the plate, making some athletic plays.  Aggressive approach in game looking to drive the ball.  Recorded a 7.91 in the 60-yard dash.

05.23.18
Strong build at 6-feet-1, 195 pounds. Uses a balanced setup from the right side with a short step for his load with little to no movement. Very quiet throughout his swing maintaining balance. Shows a short bat path to the ball with a gap to gap approach and the ability to line balls out. Above average bat speed with his exit velocity peaking at 87 mph. Behind the plate he shows average hands with clean exchanges and a short arm action working to an over the top slot with pop times recorded at 2.03-2.19. Pop times should improve with added flexibility and quicker feet. Accurate throws with his arm topping at 74 mph from the crouch.  A little high and tilted at times in his setup. Waggle through the hips while receiving. Hands work and cradle the ball, but body at times is caught in the waggle with the body swaying the wrong direction. Athleticism exists and there is room to the player’s ceiling. Recorded a 5.26 in the 40-yard dash.

01.28.18
Strong build at 6 feet 1, 195 pounds. Hits from the right side using a balanced open stance. Toe tap in his load getting his lower half involved throughout the swing.

04.10.17
Freshman catcher has shown the ability to receive with his hands.  Has "want to" on balls in the dirt.  Clean exchanges lead to a high-3/4 slot with some fade to the baseball.  Average accuracy with a game pop of 2.35.  Has a feel for the barrel and tends to be on time constantly from the right side.
