A 6-foot-2, 210-pound right hand hitting RHP/3B.  Balanced at the plate with little wasted movement.  Swing path is slightly uphill creating a ball with good carry.  Good extension out front at contact and strong lower leg drive. Had a dominating day on the mound. Fastball was consistently 87-88 mph. Has good run into right-handers, and his curveball has late sharp break away from right-handers. Was showcasing his change more today which came in at 78-79 mph. Threw for strikes. Threw a complete game in which he only allowed 3 hits and struck out 8. In 2nd game of the day set the tone off a very good pitcher with a 2-out solo shot to deep center off an 87 mph fastball. Potential late round draft kid.
