Brant Usherwood, Artesia (NM), 2026
Positional Profile: C/RHP Brant shows promise from behind the plate with his glovework and arm. Needs to clean up some areas of his hitting, but has the potential to develop into a quality well rounded catcher.
Body: 5-11, 182-pounds. Moderately athletic frame with room to fill out and add muscle mass.
Hit: RHH. Stands tall with straight stance, feet shoulder width and weight evenly distributed. Hands set below the back shoulder, barrel nearly straight up. Slight wiggle of the hands. Bat path is pretty flat and stays on plane through the zone. Minimal load on the backside with hips sliding forward as he swings. Casts hands causing the barrel to wrap around the ball. Bat path is pretty flat and stays on plane through the zone. 69.1 mph bat speed with 13 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 93 max exit velocity, averaged 81.2 mph. 293' max distance. Brant shows the ability to drive the ball back up the middle. Tends to top spin balls to the pullside.
Arm: RH. C-75 mph. Good arm with a short arm action and release from behind the ear. Puts the ball on the bag well.
Defense: 2.05-2.15 pop times. Solid transfer that allows the arm to be on time when throwing down. Recieves the ball well keeping the pitch on the white on the plate.
ATH: 8.20 runner in the 60. 1.92 and 4.49 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 25.50 max vertical.
