A 6-foot-2, 160-pound right hand hitting SS/RHP who ran a 7.90 60.  Balanced at the plate with a high lift and place leg kick.  Slight tilt of the upper body on the swing creates an uphill swing path.  Good weight transfer and extension out front produced a 75 MPH exit velocity.  Athletic in the field, he closes on the ball quickly.  He has soft hands and a good transfer to the throwing window.  Delivers from a ¾ arm slot with a 75 MPH arm.  On the mound he stands tall and gets just short of balanced.  Motion falls to the plate.  He lands in-line with the plate and then falls off slightly on the follow through.  He showcased a 76 MPH fastball with good command away and a 66 MPH curve with sweeping break.  He finished his showcase with a 70 MPH change down in the zone.
