Here is a short blurb from espn.

Ahrens' bat will take him as far as he can go. As a switch-hitter, he has a good approach at the plate. He's more powerful from the right side. He has a strong arm, but he projects more a third baseman. Arenciba is a big, strong, right-handed hitting catcher with average arm strength and sound receiving technique. His accuracy falls off on balls away from the center of his body. He's not a good hitter in that he pulls off the ball and fails to cover the outer half of the plate. He struggles on breaking balls. He only hits enough to likely be a third catcher.
