5-foot-10, 145-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder. The approach in the infield is solid, throwing 80 mph across the diamond. The glove showed to be reliable. The bat had an exit velocity of 92 mph. The setup at the dish was even in base and the stride is short. The path is short and simple to the baseball. The approach favored the pull side of the field.
