I feel like thay seems pretty good, and hopefully would translate to the majors since players have the same speed more or less their whole career until they're old.

Second, you are just starting to train him at catcher, he SHOULD get better, so don't worry if 29% is too low (it is on the low side for my taste, but I've gotten by with worse). Third, it takes hundreds of games to fully train someone at catcher, so don't expect too much progress in training the position to come out of spring training, it will make progress, but likely not noticeable.
