12/27/2024 - Baseball Factory West Coast Holiday Classic (HS) CJ is a sophomore catcher from Meridian, Idaho, who has worked hard to improve his skills at the Baseball Factory West Coast Holiday Camp. He presents a good target behind the plate with soft hands, working his thumb under to keep pitches in the strike zone. His clean arm stroke and accurate throws from a high three-quarter arm slot make him a reliable presence defensively. At the plate, he starts with his hands in a good position, tracks pitches well, and takes a square stride, competing hard throughout each at-bat. He reached base on a single, two walks, an error, and added an RBI. As a 2027 player, CJ has plenty of time to continue his development and growth.
