Scouting Report
TELL US MORE...
The offseason is upon us. Tell us a little about your off-season training:
I have been doing a lot of training with NPA and strength training to become faster and stronger and hopefully take my high school to states and win a championship. That’s my main goal right now.
Baseball is a game built on adversity & failure. How have you dealt with the the ups & downs the game brings? Who might have helped you along the way?
I’ve learned to deal with failure and work on what I have problems with harder than before.

Who is your biggest influence in the game today?
I would say my biggest influence in the game to me is Garret Cole. I just think he is an amazing player and person on and off the field.

Best player you ever shared the field with and why?
This is an almost impossible question for me to answer because i’ve played with and against a lot of great talent but i would have to say 2020 OF Kade Kern (Archbold). He’ll be playing at Ohio State next year and is definitely someone everyone should watch out for. I’ve never seen someone swing the bat like him.

How has your experience been with Prep Baseball Report?
My experience has been great and I think they have helped very much with my recruiting process and I would suggest PBR for anyone trying to play at the next level.

42. Jackie Robinson was a huge influence on the game and i think everyone should be thankful for what he’s done.

Favorite MLB Player?
Chris Sale. He's insane to watch.
Go to game day or workout music?
I’m a huge fan of Travis Scott and he’s great for getting me hyped up and ready for a game.

Most embarrassing moment on a ball-field?
Probably bat flipping on a ball off the wall. Coach wasn’t happy to say the least.
