5-foot-11, 150-pound, average athletic frame, sloped shoulders with room for added weight gains. A right-handed hitter, simple balanced setup, lower half under control, small toe tap, transfer of weight. the swing is short to contact, with a smaller finish some rotation, needs to get through it more, will help with some lift to baseball. The approach is more middle to pull side, with line drives. The exit velocity was clocked at 85 mph. Looks to have good quick legs. Defensively, clean active feet, steps through gaining ground. The arm action is long and clean, working from a higher slot. The arm was clocked at 67 mph, all throws are downhill, were on target. Continued strength training, will aid in his development.
Exit Velocity: 85 mph
Arm Velocity: 67 mph
