Scouting Report: Great plate patience and judgment, hits to all fields, above average power. Struggles against left-handed pitching. Behind the plate, Still is a great game caller and leader, but a bit slow and unathletic. Needs some work with the catcher's mitt and has an average arm. In 2008, it looks like Still will spend a lot more time at 1B/DH than at catcher. He still may have the offensive tools to advance as a 1B, particularly considering his improving power numbers.

Season Line - .314/.393/.610/1.003 16/20 (BB/K) 17 XBH 9 HR's 20 RBI's

This guy might have the highest potential out of all of our catching prospects, provided he can stick behind the dish. He isn't a product of Lancaster, as he has a 1.094 OPS away from home, and finished with 21 HR's in only 390 AB's with Greenville in 2007.

Has anybody heard anything else about him?

Good bat, but likely to end up at 1b

Jacko should know, he bought a magazine.

EDIT: The point being is that this is a regurgitation of what is a) in his SoxProspects scouting report, and b) the content of his scouting report prior to '07. What I believe Crespo is looking for is some more recent information, whether it be first hand or disseminated.
