10/06/2012 - 2012 Team One Texas Showcase Joseph is a compact catcher that will graduate in 2014. Feet are active as he works in line through a quick/clean transfer/exchange in getting rid of the baseball. Pop times show a range of 2.30-2.35 with carry/accuracy on his throws. He needs to shorten his arm arc and work to get rid of the ball quicker to continue to lower pop times. Receiving/blocking skills show as quality tools that will play well at the next level. At the plate, he shows a balanced setup with rhythm. Swing path is easy, displaying loose/quick hands. He is aggressive and shows a feel for the barrel with the baseball jumping off his bat when centered. He makes consistent contact and was 1 for 6 with a 2B at the event. With 2 years to further develop, Joseph has a lot of potential and will catch the eyes of the collegiate coaches as he continues to improve.
