AA (180 PA) .305/.328/.443
2.2% bb, 17.2% k

No idea on his defense, but that's pretty solid offense from a catcher. Well assuming he can improve that walk rate. His babip was .353, so he's had some luck

Scroll down on the link and it has his defense. .991 fielding %, 7 errors, 6 passed balls, 23% CS

I'm talking more pitch framing. Guess that isn't really defense, but it's huge

He had a really strong season. Minor arm injury kept him out the last couple weeks of the year, but he participated in a skills camp right after the season so he is apparently back healthy. He is pretty good defensively, hit right at .300, and had 10+ SB's, which is strong for a catcher.
If he stays healthy and has a good upcoming season, he has a real shot to get called up in 19 or 20. I'm pulling for him - good kid from everything I have heard. Hate we only had him 1 year.

Here's a good article from August:
