At 5-foot-10, 193 pounds he has the body type and size you look for in a catcher. Moreover, he’s a 2022 graduate giving him three more years of high school baseball to hone his craft. He showed a good feel for the position with mobility and quickness. He had pop times from 2.00-2.05, which again shows the promise behind the dish. At the plate, Finco stays balanced throughout the swing with rhythm and a short load that might concede some power but he gets enough separation in his swing to generate torque.
One of the bigger revelations of the weekend came on the right handed bat of AJ Finco. Solid stocky build, compact levers and body type with strength. Consistent middle of the field approach, short compact swing path produced some of the harder line drives of the weekend. Ball jumped off the bat with low effort. Intriguing right-handed hitter to follow in the class. He was 4-for-4 with a double and three singles, two RBIs, and a run scored on Friday, showcasing a gap-to-gap approach and innate feel for the barrel. Finished the tournament 7-for-14 with a double, four runs scored, three runs driven in, and a pair of walks.
