Scouting Report

Participated in the 2016 USA Baseball 14U National Team Development Program as a rising eighth grader.

8/19/18 - 6-foot-4, 210-pounder sat 90-93 from a high 3/4 arm slot with five strikeouts over two innings of work. Also showcased solid feel for his curveball at 73-76 with two-plane 11/5 shape. Flashed an occasional slider with shorter break at 77-79 and good sell on his changeup at 81-84. Commanded the zone in wet, difficult conditions against a potent Allegheny Pirates offense.

7/16/18 - Virginia commit shows advanced arm speed. 6-3, 210-pounder features a prototypical pitchers frame w/ well-proportioned present strength throughout, projectable. Pitches from the stretch only into H ¾ to OTT release from the 3rd base side of the rubber. Clean, repeatable delivery, understands how to get lower half involved consistently. Straight FB shows occasional short cut. Medium downer CB flashes late bite. Proper shape and rotation when he stays on top of it, will get around it at times and will look more like a slurve. Around the zone on this day, projects to command w/ repeatable delivery.

8/18/17 - Physically advanced 6-foot-3, 195-pound RHP. Sat 86-88 with fluid, easy arm action out of high 3/4 arm slot. Also flashed a biting curveball with 11/5 rotation at 75-76. First outing after being off mound for 4 months for preventative reasons.
