08/03/2024 - BF Evaluation Experience at Pigeon Forge Conner is a tall, athletic catcher who is a prospect on the diamond. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing great pocket awareness sticking pitches. He uses his body through the blocking process, centering balls well out front. Receiving / blocking skills show as quality tools that will play well at the next level. Pop times showed in 2.00 range with accuracy on his throws as he gets rid of the baseball quickly. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he continues to shine, displaying solid hitting / power potential through an athletic setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He makes hard contact and has strength in his swing with power showing best to the pull side. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. With 5 years to further develop, Conner has a lot of potential and will get looks from the collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.
