LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2005 Atlantic Coast Top Prospect Showcase
Stehle is a 6-1, 200 lb senior catcher from Virginia with good present strength. He showed advanced defensive tools and skills behind the plate in addition to having a strong, durable body for the position. Stehle does a particularly good job of playing defense on his toes, which enables him to shift and move quickly. His arm strength was solid but Stehle was able to put up sub 2.00 pop times and make good game throws because of his footwork and quickness. At the plate, Stehle has a all or nothing approach that produced some of each in the games. He has a long, powerful swing with very good extension through the ball. The two times he made contact during the games; one went 400 feet well over the left centerfield fence, the other went off the right centerfield fence. Stehle definitely has big time power and the key will be to increase his contact ratios without taking away from his aggressiveness and bat speed. Good follow who can catch and hit at the college level. Stehle is also a good student.
