Caleb Graves '23 Recruiting Profile

Baseball means a lot. In my life I have been through my ups and downs but baseball is one that has been a struggle but I always find a way to get to those up’s. I have played baseball since I was to throw a baseball.Baseball for me has helped me figure out my life and has helped me. It has shown me how to be a better person and leader. Baseball is a game that I can show what the lord has given me. Baseball is just a sport but to me it is something that I can do and work at and has given me opportunities that I will forever appreciate. 

One thing that has helped me is my ability to play baseball and not a lot of people have the ability to play baseball and have that academics. If you allowed me to come to play baseball for you and study my academics at your school you would get a confident guy that does his work and stays focused. I am someone that anyone can lead on for anything. I show the public that I came from your school and that they take some of the best kids by their leadership or by how they represent themselves. Now when I am on the field I am a leader but also a guy that will put the time and effort in. I can do all the things that you are looking for. My speed is down a little but playing basketball has helped me but I can read a pitcher. I can throw really well. When I hit it's not singles it's more to the fence for doubles. I do pitch some. I am more of a relief guy. I throw a fastball, change-up , and developing a curve-ball. Positions that I play are the corners and behind the plate some and working on becoming a right-fielder to. Coach, you can trust me with anything I am a christian student athlete and with that I have responsibilities which I have possessed in me. 

My goals are to be able to further my education and hopefully continue baseball. I would look at a NAIA school all the way up to a division two school. I would like a chance, because one of my goals is to show the haters the hard work and dedication can pay off. I have worked so hard for a very long time and for it to be cut short I would go through my life wondering what would have happened if I had not tried to go and play after high school. I am a guy that doesn’t take things for granted and I know that my goals are to go and play in one of these college  divisions.
