| Tool | Present | Future | Comments |
| Hit | 40 | 55 | Hitterish at the plate w/ natural rhythm and timing. Takes a big, aggressive cut but plus bat-to-ball skill helps find the barrel; hard game contact to all fields, ball rockets off the bat when squared; controls ABs and projects to draw walks w/ minimal swing+miss. |

| Game Power | 40 | 50 | Strength and batspeed for some game power now; can project up as he learns to lift+open up on more balls to pull; has the raw for 15-20 HRs as he ages into more power. |

| Raw Power | 55 | 55 | Shows glimpses of power potential in BP; easy fly ball power to both fields; has the type of swing that can drive the ball without getting too long. |

| Run | 40 | 30 | Runs well for his size, especially underway. Still not much of a runner and will likely lose a step as the physical grind of catching takes a toll. |

| Field | 45 | 50 | Improving defender w/ sound overall actions, solid-avg defender as he makes a few correctable tweaks. Occasionally sets noisy targets and picks at balls more than he should. Shows a sense of framing, blocks well, will stick at catcher. |

| Throw | 45 | 50 | 1.9-2.0 pop times; avg arm-str w/ fair line and carry; inconsistent release and accuracy play to 45 now but can make adjustments. Sails armside when he drops to 3/4 slot. Aggressive thrower, not afraid to keep runners honest. |

Overall Summary
Physical backstop w/ tools and instincts on both sides of the ball. Ceiling of solid everyday catcher, above-avg hit tool and sound defensive ability at premium position. Has the ingredients of a long-time big leaguer.
