Fundamentally-sound backstop with above average hit and throw tools. Simple right-handed swing with fast hands produced a 90+ mph peak exit. Showed quality receiving abilities while also reaching 80 mph from the crouch (T 2nd) and pops as low as 2.00. 5-foot-10, 170-pounder with above average athleticism for the position. Skill over tools.
10/11/25
Nothing flashy about his game, but he produces in nearly every look we get on him. On-plane stroke includes some twitch with exits that approach the 90 mph mark. Collected multiple in-game hits while looking the part of an above average defender behind the dish. Arm is best tool to date working 77 mph from the crouch with sub-2 pops. 7.2 runner.
6/17/25
Rees took a solid round of batting practice, but the 5-foot-9, 155 pounder stood out most during gameplay, where he collected multiple barrels and received well. He is balanced at the dish with evident contact skills stemming from a quiet operation in the right-handed batters' box. While the arm strength does not jump out from the crouch, his 2.08 pop time was an event-best and speaks to the glove-to-hand abilities that he already possesses. Rees elevated himself in front of our staff with an actions over tools profile, with strength/maturation likely to louden his toolset.
