Positional Profile: C/1B Body: 5-foot-11, 175-pounds. Strong athletic build, appears to be more physical than listed. Defense: 2.18-2.25 - Strong soft hands receiving at C, sits well and presents good target, footwork is clean on throws to 2nd and results in solid accuracy, played bunt well w/proper technique. At 3B starts low stays low through the ball, soft hands, read and played ball well to left/right and on slow roller, sound 3B fundamentals. Arm: RH. C - 73 mph. INF - 77 mph. At 3B long over the top arm action w/fair carry. At catcher the arm action is shorter w/goal post type backside, overhand slot, pulls head off line to get arm through. POPs were near bag more often than not. Hit: RHH. Wide base, pinched knees in slight crouch, relaxed bat over shoulder prior to load and start of swing, calm quiet before exploding. Small knee lift start, gets to medium stride, controls barrel while getting knob angled toward catcher, drives back hip, powerful through contact, balanced throughout, strong separation through contact.
