P.J. Higgins

Higgins is a smooth, sure-footed athlete. He's shown defensive versatility, playing third base, second base and catcher. Higgins' future is behind the plate, where he is a smooth receiver and shows average arm strength. Higgins also has some feel for the bat, with a gap-to-gap approach and inside-out stroke. He has well below-average power, though he can drive the ball deep when a pitcher makes a mistake. Over his three years at Old Dominion, Higgins has hit .324 and shown steady improvements in power and plate discipline.
