9/10/17 - 6-0, 195-pound catcher.  Righty hitter hits from a very slightly open, very slightly crouched stance w/ back shoulder hand location.  Mini leg kick where he picks foot up and puts down in same spot, but squared up w/ short hand load.  Avg bat speed w/ all fields approach.  Intriguing uncommitted 2018 prospect.

5'10, 190-pound, RHH hits from a tall and slightly open stance and begins with his hands in a very high position above his head, uses a high leg kick and drops and loads his hands to get himself ready to go at the plate.  Lower half works well and helps him get his barrel on plane and stay through the zone for a long time, bat speed could improve and didn’t hit many balls as hard as he is probably capable, does show potential to get through the ball better in the future. Defensively, showed good hands and receiving ability, footwork was smooth but a little slow, put himself in a good position to deliver the ball to second base with accurate throws, has a little double-clutch in his over-the-top arm slot. Stood up a little soon on some of his throws to second.
