Andrew Taylor gives UTRGV a power bat behind the plate
In the 2026 season, UTRGV catcher Andrew Taylor flashed real middle-of-the-order pop, including a career night on May 5 with 3 hits, 4 RBI, and 2 home runs, plus a game-tying ninth-inning homer on April 14. He’s a redshirt junior with a right-handed bat and the kind of edge coaches love in a catcher: impact offense, clutch swings, and enough versatility to stay in the lineup. The caution flag is playing time competition at catcher, but his bat gives him clear value if your team wants toughness and run production from the backstop.
