Scouting Report
8/17/17 6-foot-3, 230-pound right-handed hitter starts from an open stance and initiates his swing with a knee-to-knee stride displaying balance through extension. Took one of the better rounds of batting practice on the day showcasing the ability to create backspin with present power to both gaps. Registered a 96 mph bat exit velocity and ran a 7.76 60 yard-dash. Displayed active feet and a soft glove hand defensively with accurate 79 mph arm strength across the diamond. Physical athlete moves very well for a prospect his size. Uncommitted senior will likely draw heavy interest in the months ahead and is likely to make an early offensive impact at the next level.
