Presenting himself at a proportional 6-foot-2, 220-pound frame, C Gavin Obremski (Mosinee, 2024) is another athlete who continues to improve in all facets of his game, especially as a switch-hitter at the plate. The batter showed well on Tuesday, utilizing a tall and relaxed stance to get on top of the baseball and drive it, a trait that stood out during his BP session. From the summer of 2022, to this past winter, to the present day, Obremski has steadily become more comfortable on the right side of the plate in our looks, displaying his versatility as a true switch-hitter with natural power on both sides of the batter's box. With this flexibility, Obremski also manned the catcher position for his team on Tuesday, showcasing a strong and accurate arm, maxing out at 1.95 seconds for a pop time in his defensive session. His actions behind the dish were illustrated during live gameplay too, as Obremski made a tag at the plate with a runner attempting to score from second base, making a pick on a bouncing ball and swiping a quick tag down on his opponent.
