Scouting Report
Owns a good catchers' frame (5-9, 200 pounds) and solid receiving skills. Also bats left-handed, which adds to his overall value. Is a good contact hitter who can draw walks, too. Does not have much extra-base power, which limits his at-bats (at all levels) because he does not profile as a No. 1 catcher. Like most catchers, he does not run very well at all.
Long Range Potential: Depth catcher.
