• Report: The 6-foot, 200-pound right-handed hitting catcher/ 1st baseman, is a big physical athlete. The bat is a serious tool with an exit velocity of 88mph. The stance begin open and even with the balance. The take back with the hands is quiet and gets into a strong hitting position. The stride is short but the weight gets a little heavy on the back side occasionally. The bat is really quick and gets elevated through the zone. Showed the ability to let the ball get deep in the zone and drive the ball through the center of the field. Defensively, showed the ability to play both the infield and behind the plate. As an infielder, the feet moved well. Around the bag he was able to get into good fielding positions. The glove is soft and works well through the ball. The arm was 79 mph across the diamond from a clean arm slot. Behind the plate, the pop time was (1.93 - 2.1). The stance begins closed and gets tall early coming out of the crouch. The glove to ball transition is low due to the footwork. Being able to clean up the footwork and move the glove exchange higher will stabilize the pop times. The arm strength is there. This is a D1 bat with the ability to play two positions.
