Max Exit Velo: 92.2 mph Launch Angle : 19.3
Showed well both at the plate and defensively on the day. Quick transfer with an accurate arm while throwing, and made some quality blocks on tough pitches throughout the day. At the dish showed his natural raw power driving a ball deep to RF as well as being able to stay inside the ball on a couple tough pitches and hitting line drives over SS.

Max Exit Velo: 94.4 Launch Angle: 5.5
Physically built like a catcher and showed his best tool is his quick transfer with a strong throw that had carry all the way to the bag. There is some stiffness in the actions but showed the ability to handle the low pitch as well as make a couple nice blocks and keep the ball in front of him on the day. At the plate, he showed a simple swing out of his wide setup and generated easy line drives with the ability to drive the ball with back spin.
