Marc Hersh is flashing real power for FIU behind the plate
In the 2026 season, FIU catcher Marc Hersh has emerged as a bat-first breakout with power upside, including a .389 average and 1.172 OPS through 11 games in the team’s stat ledger, plus a two-homer, five-RBI explosion against New Mexico State. He’s a right-handed hitter with gap-to-fence juice, and local previews say the coaching staff holds him in high regard and expects him to be the Opening Day catcher. If you want a catcher who can punish mistakes and keep trending upward, Hersh is very much worth the watch.
