Not all his fault although it stands out in the last inning.
Yeah he's very athletic. I don't know how long he's been catching but he picked up some bad habits along the way and that happens a lot with very good hs catchers who just athlete their way through. It's different at this level. He's to jittery back there, doesn't get set quick enough and it makes him off balance and that's why so many passes balls and why he can't block. Also you cannot get on one with runners on, it's a bad habit that catchers have started doing and it sucks. I know cheese has been working with him but he's having to unlearn years of bad habits. As my old coach used to say it takes 5 minutes to pick up bad habits and 2 weeks to break them. He's got talent but a lot of work to do. He will be good if he does the work
