Grant Paletz is a 2028 C with a 5-8 140 lb. frame from Rochester, MI who attends Brother Rice. Features a smaller build with room to add. Ran a 7.97 60-yd dash. Behind the plate, showed developing catch/throw actions. Operated from a higher/taller set. Segmented footwork and exchange. Exchange showed average quickness where it occurred at the upper chest. Some extra/unneccesary steps to the footwork that gain decent ground later in the action. Slight wrist waggle to the arm action that got off on-line throws to the bag with avg. strength for his level. At the plate, he operates from a balanced/even base with lower set hands. Simple/quick move into launch where he doesn't get off his backside. Avg. bat/hand speed for his level where the barrel works on an uphill path through. Inconsistent barrel feel and timing shown during his round with minimal balls put in play. Pulls off a bit and doesn't hold ground/direction well.
