Polk State commit. 5-foot-11, 187-pound right-handed hitting catcher, physical frame with strength in all areas, especially in his lower half. Offensively, had one of the loudest rounds of batting practice. Open setup, good rhythm in his hands as he loads back, leg kick timing trigger, gets to a balanced position. Swings with aggressive intent and advanced bat speed, gets into his strong lower half as he drives the ball middle/pull, profiles as a present power hitter, 98 exit velocity off a tee. Defensively, arm works short and over-the-top, with quick arm speed, struggled with release point one-hopping the ball into second base, 76 mph out of the crouch. Displayed fluid footwork and a quick transfer, almost too quick as upper half routinely was ahead of lower half affecting his throws, competent receiver, uses large frame well to block and keep the ball directly in front, pop times ranged 2.00-2.04. Ran a 7.65 laser-timed 60.
