Jayden Novak brings middle-order power and catcher upside after a breakout 2026 run at La Salle
Novak’s 2026 season for La Salle was headlined by impact power and big-moment production, including a four-homer, 11-RBI doubleheader that featured a walk-off grand slam and a season line of 10 home runs, 40 RBIs, and 10 steals across 53 games. He profiles as a right-handed catcher with a strong arm and above-average raw power, and recruiting evaluations note his defensive primary-catcher value and carry on throws. If you want a physical, high-upside catcher who can change a game with one swing, he’s worth a long look.
