A versatile defender who showed well both in the infield (79 mph arm) and outfield (81 mph arm). At the plate, Taw turned in one of the more consistent BP rounds, posting a 92.7 mph max exit velocity with an 88.9 mph average and a max distance of 355'. That power translated seamlessly into gameplay, as he barreled one of the hardest-hit balls of the day, a double off the left-field wall. With a 6-1, 175-pound frame, Taw already shows present strength and athleticism, and there’s plenty of physical projection remaining that suggests even more power development to come.
