Intense competitor, loves to play, competitive thrower w/blocking skills (frequently around 2.10), displays some power potential to middle of field, seems to have other players gravitate to him in dugout, strong verbal leadership skills on the field.

Defense: 2.00-2.18 pop times. Displayed baseball feel, saw action at C/2B/P, overall defensive fundamentals translate across the diamond.

PBR N CA Preseason All-State - Long, Medium frame with high waist and tight muscles in upper half showing projectability in frame for more growth; runs high with average stride length (7.69 60-yd). Narrow set up showing higher posture with athleticism to get out of stance and into legs; smooth transition from glove to throw hand and quick release. Times where upper/lower half are working out of sync and small adjustments will help lower pop times (2.11-2.26 pop, 71 MPH). Narrow stance with high back elbow and even hands; big leg lift with ability to sink into lower half as hands pull back/down in load. Bat is quick flashing pull side drive and more into the gaps when bat finishes on a slightly upward path; projectable swing with full body turns (86 exit velo).
