Cooper Clouser brings high-contact bat and premium catching defense to ASU
Clouser profiles as a catcher who can help a college staff in two ways: his bat has shown real contact ability and on-base value, while his defense has been praised for quick transfers, accurate throws, and pop times in the 1.87-2.0 range.[2] As a high school senior, he posted a strong .342 average, .425 on-base percentage, and .856 OPS, and his fielding percentage was .994, which points to a steady, reliable backstop rather than just a bat-first player.[4][1] He also has limited college game action at Arizona State, so the upside is more projection than proof at this level.[3][5]
