A team projecting on Priester has a lot to dream on. He’s a high school catcher with a plus-plus arm and plus power. Priester hits highlight-reel home runs and has posted numerous exit velocities of 110-plus mph with a metal bat. He hits from an extremely wide base and early in counts he has a significant timing step. But he’s shown similar power later in counts when he barely lifts his foot. Defensively, Priester has the tools to stay behind the plate. He’s a solid athlete and has soft hands. Right now, Priester’s power does come with more contact concerns than teams would like to see in a prep catcher. He’s committed to Meridian (Miss.) JC.
