12/27/2024 - Baseball Factory Holiday Classic at Pirate City Joe is a dedicated catcher from New Fairfield, CT, set to graduate in 2027, who recently honed his skills at the Baseball Factory Pirate City Holiday Camp. Behind the plate, Joe presents a strong target and shows excellent pocket awareness with a firm glove. He does a great job of gaining ground on his throws to second base, with his best pop time recorded at 2.16 seconds. His throws are accurate from a high three-quarter arm slot, and he demonstrates good range when blocking, always centering the baseball. At the plate, Joe starts with an open stance and shows natural juice in his swing, making hard contact when he connects. Unfortunately, during the camp, Joe was only able to play in one game due to an injury, but his skills and potential were evident. With two years of continued growth and development, Joe has a bright future ahead and is poised to make a significant impact on the field in the coming years.
