One of the top backstops from the weekend, Hovestol made a name for himself due to his advanced all around skill set behind the plate. A quiet receiver with soft hands that are able to steal strikes off the plate with relative ease. Also a soft blocker that deadens the baseball and is able to keep it in front of him with the capability to block out of multiple setups. Offensively Hovestol swings a powerful left handed bat geared for driving the ball in the air. Hovestol is able to easily repeat his swing without effort and drive the ball to all fields.
Hovestol has a projectable frame, strength throughout, stock set up from left side, short swing direct path with loft finish. Sets well behind plate, receives well, keeps ball in front.
