Del Castillo combines power and plate discipline better than anyone in the 2021 college pool, having provided more extra-base hits (39) and walks (43) than strikeouts (32) in 77 games during his first two seasons at Miami. Scouts are sold on his left-handed bat and power, though his fringy arm strength and receiving will have to improve if he's going to remain behind the plate."

Kid is a stud. However, his future in MLB isn't as a catcher.

Agree. Unlike Collins though, Del Castillo is pretty good athlete and showed his frosh year he can handle Corner OF.

They're different body types obviously, but I've seen the Kyle Schwarber comp thrown out there, as both are bat-first college C's who did/can probably reach MLB quickly by moving to LF/RF
