2021 catcher, Matthew Brandt, has continued to make progressions since we first saw him in 2018. From the left side, it’s loose, he gains ground and displays some pull-side pop. He looks to elevate the baseball and repeats his swing consistently. Behind the plate, he impressed with his glove-to-hand transfers and quick releases, which resulted in pop-times in the 2.30-2.41 range with room to improve with added arm strength. Interesting follow in the 2021 class.

2.10.19
Brandt, a 5-foot-8, 150-pound catcher for the Ontario Athletics impressed at our first event of the year. The left-handed hitter starts with his bat flat on his shoulder before getting into slot and driving forward creating bat speed. He has an idea and feel of how to hit, and as he gets stronger he should tap into more power. Behind the plate, there are mechanical adjustments that need to be made, but his short arm action and 66 mph velocity are strengths of his back there. Brandt is a 2021 catcher to watch during the course of the season and beyond.

9.29.18
2021 Matthew Brandt of the Ontario Athletics is a left-handed hitting catcher with some thump. At the dish, he gets his lower half going with an aggressive leg kick that allows him to generate power and create rhythm throughout his body. Because of his barrel direction he gets on plane early with smoothness through the zone. It’s a real compact swing with extension out front and signs of pull-side power down the road. Behind the plate, he gets out of the crouch fine with relatively clean footwork. He tends to get caught reaching for the ball and ends up out front with no momentum. As he continues to develop, getting more agile and stronger will be huge for his progression on both sides of the ball.
