Born in Tijuana, Mexico, Nevarez is a bilingual catcher who evaluators like for his potential to help guide Latin American pitchers through their systems. Nevarez is a solid-average receiver who handles all types of velocity and breaking stuff. He has average arm strength but sometimes bobble balls on the transfer, a problem he has worked to clean up. Nevarez is a below-average hitter but has enough power to profile at catcher. He's in consideration to be a day three draft pick.
