| Summary: Who the fourth catcher is in college baseball is certainly up for debate, but Graveline has the upside to be that guy. He is athletic behind the dish and moves really well. He has more strength that the frame suggests thanks to his lower half and there is plenty of projection to add more strength too. He has seen time in the corner outfield and at first, but his routes in the outfield do highlight it is not his natural position, as he can really drift. At the plate he has some coil and hand lift in the load, but he is able to get his weight into his swing despite a rather compact swing that is quick to the zone. He makes hard contact thanks to the whippy bat, but the home run power is fringy still, as he is more of a doubles hitter currently. | |||||||||||
