5-foot-7, 145-pound right-handed hitting catcher and corner infielder. He threw 76 mph during the infield portion of the workout, showing solid glove play. The skill set behind the dish is good, throwing 72 mph out of a clean path. The feet and transfer work. The bat has an exit velocity of 89 mph. The setup is athletic, small croutch to begin. The hands work extremely well and he shows a good feel for the bat. The hand speed is plus. He is a good young player

The 4-foot-4, 75 pound right-handed hitting catcher/infielder had a tee exit velocity of 52 mph. The set up is narrow with the hands in a good position. The load is short and he gets into a strong position to hit. the swing itself is fluid. The path is flat to and through contact. I do think he could look to use his bottom half a little more.
In the outfield, the arm was 51 mph. The approach to the ball was controlled, with the glove getting into a good fielding position. As the catch was made, the transition to the throwing motion was clean and in line with the target. I like the fundamentals displayed and thing it lays the foundation for him to continue to develop.
Behind the plate, he was 50 mph down to second base. The stance is a bit narrow, which caused some balance issues. The glove is in a good position. The transition from the glove to the throwing position is good. He gets the ball out and above the back shoulder. The feet move well and get in line with second base. He finishes over the front leg with a clean arm swing.
