QUOTE
Scouting Report: Big catcher was All-Conference, All-State, and All-Region for St. Pete in 2006. Good ability to get on base and moderate power potential.


In 5 ABs, he has a line of .400/.571/.800, which pretty much makes him the best catching prospect in baseball.

This from one of Gammon's blogs:

QUOTE
One scouting director claims that while some clubs will overdraft a catcher out of desperate need, "none of the catchers in this draft are much better than second or third rounders." That includes Pepperdine's Chad Tracy, who comes with extraordinary bloodlines as Jim's son, as well as high schoolers Max Sapp of Windermere, Fla., and Hank Conger of Huntington Beach, Calif. "We liked Luis Esposito (signed by Boston out of St. Pete J.C. as a draft and follow) better than almost any of them," says a scouting director.

Exposito's numbers:

.316/.409/.386. Not a whole lot of power, but he has done a very good job of throwing out runners this year. If he could just start hitting for a little power, he might be a real interesting one to watch.

Exposito, in addition to doing an excellent job defensively down at Lowell, is up to a .316/.395/.408/.803 with a 8/18 K/BB ratio.
