Glovework is shown out front Had an-over-the-top slot and a quick arm action. On the mound, threw from an over-the-top arm angle and had quick arm speed. Slow-tempo type pitcher and uses some effort. Consistent balance point. Produced a fastball that came in at 77-78 mph; shows some action and command around the zone. Threw a 12/6 curveball (63-64) that showed control around the zone and swing and miss action. Showed sinking action and very consistent command on his changeup (73-74).
