Positional Profile: 3B/C Physical: 6-2, 180-pounds; Long, lean build. 7.61 runner in the 60. Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet wide spread; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Extended take back of the hands with an exaggerated leg kick for timing. Drifts into contact while showing a strong lower half. Showed a slight lift to the ball with two handed finish with occasional late one hand release. More fly balls than line drives and ground balls with a peak exit velocity of 94 MPH via Trackman. Powerful young hitter, long levers though controls barrel well and showed barrel awareness. Defensively: Starts with a balanced setup; uses prep hop while playing low to the ground. Hands are out in front while funneling to the hip before transfer. Moderate arm circle while using various arm slots. 2.07-2.19 pop times. C - 75 MPH. 3B - 68 MPH. Showed both traditional and one-knee set-up at catcher, worked below ball well when receiving, clean transfer on pops, came out of crouch early, displayed accurate arm.
