01/13/2017 - Baseball Factory All-America Pre-Season Rookie Tournament Tristen had a strong weekend behind the plate. As a catcher, Tristen works around the ball and controls balls in the dirt with his chest. He shows a quick exchange and gains momentum well on his throws to second base which allow them to remain accurate and on-line to the bag. At the plate, Tristen sets up in a square stance and takes a short stride to the ball. He is smooth getting into his load and comes through the zone with decent bat speed, leading to consistent contact and line drives. Tristen has tremendous upside and will continue to improve with experience.
