At 6-foot-1, 160-pounds, and left-handed he fits the profile on the mound and has yet to reach his full potential. The arms are extremely long and the arm path works. Pitches out of a slightly higher than ¾ arm slot. Fastball has cut to it, needs the middle finger to work through the center of the ball to eliminate the cut. Fastball touched 76 mph. The breaking ball is big, needs more hand speed to it, touched 66 mph. The changeup shows promise, sitting at 70 mph. The delivery has coil at the top and he does spin off prior to foot strike. Additionally, shows forward lean to the plate as he lifts his leg. Positionally, he’s a very good athlete, threw 80 from the outfield and ran the balls down with ease. The bat has life to it, tee exit velocity of 89 mph. Squared up a couple balls in the game as well. Hits right-handed, out of a even base with a small crouch in the legs. Uses a big hand separation to initiate action with the bat. The path is long to the ball. Ran a 4.58 down the line on his dig. Good athlete, with work, could be very good on the bump. 1.87 from the lift in the stretch.
