Scouting Report

11/12/17- The PBR Future Games participant stood out at the plate when he showed pull side pop and quick hands through the zone during two solid rounds of batting practice on Saturday night. He has an open stance, a strong lower half, and finds a way to make consistent contact from the left side. In the field he displayed a quick first step, sure hands, and accurate throws to the bag. Moves well laterally to his right and left. 

09/30/17- 5-foot-10, 160 pound middle infielder is a solid all-around player. Defensively, he moves well, is sound in the infield and makes all of the routine plays. Offensively, He is aggressive through the zone. He can get rotational and long in batting practice at times, but tends to stay shorter to the ball in game. He has a feel for the barrell and produced a single in the game. There are some tools that project, but will be a solid all-around player at the next level.  

08/06/17- The athletic infielder shown a lot of all around athletic actions. Defensively, he showed the ability to play in the middle infield, but projects as an above average defensive second baseman, making a few nice plays during the games. He ranges well to glove and hand sides and works under control. Offensively, the left handed hitter has a balanced, strong lower half. When he worked to the middle of the field he consistently found the barrel. He has more pull power than expected and with a feel for the barrel would make a quality two-hole type player at the next level.

06/21/17 - Currently stands at 5-foot-10, 160 pounds and shows a lot of functional athleticism. He may not have one plus tool, but his defense and bat to ball skill are above average. Defensively he projects to be an above average to plus defensive second baseman with rangy action and an above average glove. Offensively, he has good rhythm and timing. He will mix a medium leg kick and toe-tap load. He has a feel for the barrel and an advanced approach. He is strong pound for pound and when he works in the leg kick consistently will develop pull side power. Has tools and they work in the game while also room to project.

06/01/17 - The athletic middle infielder moves extremely well at short. He is under control, with easy fluid actions. The hands are soft and he has a lot of confidence in them. He also showed plenty of arm to stay on the left side of the field. At the plate, he showed surprising pull power. He utilizes his lower half extremely well, and has a lot of looseness in the wrists. He can get a bit shouldered at times, but when he works the middle he shows advanced barrel feel.
