Pitching notes: Shallow front leg lift with drift down the hill as hands stay at the waist finishing over closed front side. Hides the ball well and attacked hitters with a loose and repeatable 3/4 release. Controlled actions down the hill and able to use it to play all pitches up. FB with angle to the bottom half and ability to spot on both sides as needed. Gloveside angle in second was superb. SLD short and late breaking with ability to get it under RHH's hands; later pitch was harder and tight with late actions. Very strong in the zone and late life making hitters consistently late. Upside available on the mound. FB 77-79 / SL 68-70
Offensive notes: Even hands, small kick with an easy swing having back hip drive back knee down. Wore out the LCF gap with carry and flashed some ability to pull the ball as well. 60-yard - 8.50 / EV mph - 88
Defensive notes: Worked low and under the ball with soft glove able to adjust to the ball and on throws from infielders. Lower slot ablte to make throws needed to bags. Showed some active feet on the bag. 1B mph - 75 mph
