Michael Papierski

Man - this guy really looked good last night. He's got a certain "presence" behind the plate. Love the way he works. Good frame. 1-1 at the plate.
Mainieri: "The thing that jumps out to you immediately when seeing Michael Papierski is that he looks like a big league catcher. From the body, the actions, and the way he plays the game, Michael is the total package. He’s a 6”3” switch-hitting catcher that shows an outstanding arm from behind the plate. Honestly, his game reminds me a lot of Micah Gibbs, with perhaps a little bit better arm from behind the plate. He’s already emerged as the leader of the freshmen class during the strength and conditioning workouts this summer. He’s worked hard and pushed others - which is an important attribute that you would like to see from your catcher. He can be one of the all-time greats at LSU when his career here is done."

He's going to be good. I honestly thought he'd end up starting over Scivicque by season's end. Never could have foreseen kade having an all American season

There's something you don't see every day.

I'd like to see his defense improve. Maybe it's just that Kade makes it look so easy, but there is a big dropoff when Pap goes in.
Hasn't shown much in the way of hitting, but he hasn't had much opportunity either. His practice sessions are probably more indicative of his hitting ability then his in-game plate appearances.
After hearing CPM's praise I was surprised at how unready Pap was this year. But if CPM hadn't said all of that I'd be pleased with his prospects.

Compare the three top catchers on LSU's team, Scivique, Paps, and Chinea, to Arkansas' starter. With all due respect, their catcher looked like an 8th grader.

Going to be nice to have him catch for Latz

He has been the most impressive non pitcher freshman in 2015. He has position skills and I think he will hit in the future.

This kid and Deichmann both put on a show in BP. Look for both to display a lot of power for the Tigers the next couple of years.
