WALKER JANEK - C (Sam Houston State) 2024 MLB Draft Prospect Video Profile

Walker Janek went from a top 500 draft prospect to a potential first round pick this year after hitting .364 with 17 bombs and an 1.185 OPS. He took home the Buster Posey Award as the best catcher in college baseball. Janek has a natural home run swing, but is also extremely patient, doesn’t chase pitches and doesn’t strike out much. He is aggressive when the situation calls for it, and can absolutely crush the baseball with frequency. Defensively, he is also elite and took home his conference Defensive Player of the Year award. He has a plus-plus arm and also works well with the pitching staff. Janek can basically do it all and even stole 27 bases, although he’ll likely not be a big base stealer in the pros.
