School: Huntington Beach (Calif.) HS. Committed: Mississippi State. Age At Draft: 19.0
Grindlinger is one of the best catchers in the 2025 class. At 6-foot-3, he’s tall for the position but he projects to stick behind the plate because of his catch-and-throw skills. He’s worked hard to stay on top of his conditioning over the past year, enhancing his athleticism with good flexibility and looseness for a catcher his size. He has a plus arm and cuts his pop times under 2.0 seconds on his best throws. He hit well during the summer circuit in 2023 and showed a knack for using the opposite field and making hard contact with a good sense of the strike zone. He doesn’t regularly tap into it during games because of his approach, but he has big raw power for his age, with a chance to develop into a 20-plus home run threat. -
