02/19/2017 - National Tryout Plus - Sugar Land (Houston), TX Hunter is a long, lean 2019 catching prospect. He shows off an impressive arm behind the dish that is instrumental in his ability to shut down the running game with strong throws to second. He sits in a low, comfortable position behind the plate with lateral agility to block quickly to both sides, keeping everything in front. He gains ground with a quick transfer to get rid of the ball to make accurate throws to second. At the dish, he has a patient approach with good tracking ability to see the ball to contact and pick up spin early. He shows bat to ball skills and feel for the barrel to put the ball in play consistently and pressure the defense. Working on overload drills will lead to more bat speed and hard contact moving forward. Hunter is a prospect we want to keep an eye on as he develops further.
