5-foot-8, 145-pound lean frame. Clocked a 60 time of 7.93 at the event. Started in a quiet stance with a controlled compact load, then used a short stride before his swing. Had simple swing plane and had level finish. Found some barrels in his rounds. Gap to gap approach. Gast clocked an exit velocity of 77 mph. He produced a position velocity of 69 mph during throw downs; had a fluid exchange, consistent hands and rhythmic footwork. Had athletic setup. Behind the plate, had a pop time of 2.25-2.42. Showed an-over-the-top slot and a short arm action. Young catcher that shows some solid projection over the next few years.
