Alexandre Giguère is a power-swinging freshman catcher with pop, poise, and upside
In the 2026 season, Washington State’s Alexandre Giguère flashed impact bat speed early, including a two-homer game and a Mountain West Freshman of the Week nod after a three-game stretch with 3 homers, 5 RBIs, and a 1.182 slugging percentage[1][2]. His recruiting bio points to a catcher who already brings offensive upside and defensive value, with a .362 senior average, 1.079 OPS, just 3 passed balls, and 40% of runners thrown out in 207 innings[3]. If you want a backstop with real juice and competitive edge, he’s worth a serious look[1][3].
