01/14/2022 - 2022 Baseball Factory Pre-Season All-America Tournament (FL) John is a strong athletic catcher in the 2022 class. Recently, he performed well at the FL Preseason All-American Tournament. Behind the plate, he plays with solid energy and has a high motor. Proves to have proper flexibility to sway with the pitch. Has solid pocket awareness and keeps his eyes behind the baseball. His exchanges are clean and releases from a high ¾ arm slot. Working on an arm strength program will increase his ball flight quickness and decrease his pop times. At the plate, displays strong pull side power. The ball jumps off the bat when he catches the back of the ball (90 exit velo). He begins with a short stride and loads well into a squared and comfortable hitting position. Stays balanced during his swing for consistent contact. Maintaining quiet eyes will help him from pulling off the baseball at times. Overall, John is a great catching prospect in the 2022 class and will make a fine addition to a college program.
