Unsigned Senior Spotlight: Fremd C Connor Bieda
February 16, 2012
Connor Bieda, C, Fremd HS, Class of 2012
Bieda was the best catching prospect at Prep Baseball Report Unsigned Senior Showcase. He is a strong-bodied 5-foot-11, 180-pound polished catcher who had the most accurate arm of the event. Bieda demonstrated quick feet and a clean exchange, as he was clocked at 79 mph from the crouch and had a top pop time of 2.04 with every throw right on the bag.
Bieda, who is also a top-level student, also shined during bullpens. At the plate, Bieda exhibited a quiet approach with a balanced setup and a short compact swing. His short, level swing created barrel whip through the zone, resulting consistent hard contact to all fields.
