Scouting Report
6-foot-1, 190-pound catcher who impressed in game action. His pop times were 2.01-2.06, with a position velocity of 77. High hands, a narrow base, limited movement, with a gap-to-gap approach at the plate. In-game he works well behind the plate, good receiver, and worked well with the pitchers. At the plate, he had competitive at-bats and contributed in all three games. He can play corner infield also, which can create more opportunities for him to get on the field. A competitive kid who plays hard.
2023 C Derek Olsen (Uncommitted) 2-for-2, 2RBI. Olsen’s strong frame stands out. Shows flexibility and agility as catcher and receiving skills are very good. Great transition and transfer and shows a consistent pop time below 1.95. Had a 2-2 day with 2RBI’s and showed discipline in AB’s. Great timing with load and middle of the field approach.
