Clark Springs gives UT Arlington a steady bat with clutch pop behind the plate
In the 2026 season, UT Arlington catcher Clark Springs has been a useful spark for the Mavericks, posting a .263 average with a .680 OPS and delivering extra-base value, including a go-ahead three-run triple in a late-May win. He has also shown contact skills, situational awareness, and enough versatility to contribute in pressure spots, which matters for a team looking for a steady, competitive backstop. Springs looks like a fit if you want a catcher who brings grit, run production, and timely offense rather than flash.
