Max Audé is a 2022 C/RHP with a 6-3 185 lb. frame from Woodland Hills, CA who attends Notre Dame. Medium to large build with room to still fill out as he develops. Primary catcher, uses a low crouch and stands straight up to throw. Solid transfer and throwing mechanics with plenty of room to improve with his footwork. Strong foundation as a backstop. Posted a 2.06 second pop time to second base. On the mound, has a short arm action from a high three-quarters to over the top arm slot. 75-80 mph fastball possesses good downhill angle as well as occasional arm side run. Also mixes in a high 11-to-5 shaped curveball with solid depth and bite. Is not afraid to go back to back with the pitch. Stays tall throughout his motion and is at his best when working out in front. At the plate, uses a narrow and slightly open stance with a simple mid-leg lift trigger. Has a simple bat wag into his load and stays direct to the baseball. Elevated barrel plane through the zone generates natural launch angle. Present pop to all fields when barreled. Good student in the classroom as well.
