8/11/18 - 60 Time: 7.47, Pop Time: 1.90-1.97, Position Velocity:  C-74, Exit Velocity: 95
6-foot-2, 175-pound, RHH showed a jump and recorded one of the top exit velocities we have seen this year.  Tall, athletic frame w/ well-proportioned lean strength, super projectable.  Offensively, hits w/ a straight on, slightly crouched stance w/ short hand rhythm into proper stride and load.  Generates above average bat speed through the zone.  Barrel stays in the zone for a long time w/ ability to spray line drives all over the field.  Consistent hard contact.  Projectable pull power.  Defensively, can present an earlier target and maintain that target to give his pitchers a better visual cue.  Tools to receive, moves well behind the plate w/ an idea of how to frame the baseball.  Mobile w/ ability to box the baseball.  As a thrower, shows solid footwork w/ quick release and carry to target arm strength.

11/18/17 - 30 Time: 4.28, Pop Time: 1.84-1.94, Position Velocity:  IF: 79, C: 77, Exit Velocity: 87
6-foot-1, 165-pound, RHH continues to show and profile better w/ each time he is seen.  Increased position velocity by 2 ticks and his exit velocity by one tick from Border Battle last month.  Shows the same LD approach profile w/ projectable frame, profiling for ability to hit to all fields w/ gap power.  Defensively, shows average as a thrower w/ grinder mentality behind the plate.

10/21/17 - Home-1st: 4.75, Pop Time: 2.09-2.16, Position Velocity:  C-75, Exit Velocity: 86
6-foot-1, 165-pound, RHH had a strong in game performance, going 2-5 w/ a walk and no swing and miss on 5 swings.  Medium, athletic frame w/ lean strength, projection.  Hits from a narrow, straight on, slightly crouched stance w/ bat resting on back shoulder.  Mini leg kick w/ proper load.  Up the middle approach w/ line drive oriented swing.  Gap to gap type.  Shows ability to hit the ball to all fields.  Average runner underway, athletic type catcher is not a base clogger.  Defensively, presents an okay target for his pitcher, does not get it set early enough or maintain the position.  Soft hands w/ some feel for receiving.  Moves well behind the plate.  As a thrower, features avg arm strength w/ avg release.  Interesting line drive oriented catcher in the 2019 class.

6/13/17 - Home-1st: 4.42, Pop Time: 2.08-2.26, Position Velocity:  C-71, Exit Velocity: 79
6-foot-1, 160-pound, RHH hits from the same narrow and slightly open stance as we saw in December, used an abbreviated leg kick and a longer stride, lower half finishes wide and creates some positive separation.  Likes to pull but at his best when he stays middle.  Defensively, feet and hands were more than sufficient, exchange and release took a long time.

12/10/16 - 60 Time: 7.62, Pop Time: 2.14-2.28, Position Velocity:  C-71, IF-72, Exit Velocity: 78
6-foot-0, 155-pound, RHH hits from a more narrow and slightly open stance with his hands rested just above his back shoulder, uses a longer stride and a smooth pushback of his bottom hand to get loaded, lower half struggled early in his round but worked well and certainly cleared his hips toward the end of his round, swing plane is mostly flat through the zone but can get a little steep on balls down, seemed to stay middle a lot.  Defensively, showed above-average hands and footwork behind the plate, transfer was high and clean but led to throws through a low ¾ slot, could develop some more carry on throws to 2B, showed versatility by competing in the infield.
