6-foot, 170-pounds, longer, thin and lengthy athletic frame. Showing plenty of room for added weight gains. A right-handed hitting two-way player. At the plate, starts taller, even feet, higher hands, with a tilted setup. The lower half is under control, swing path is down to level to up, barrel is in the zone a long time, rolls hands late, finishing higher with two-hands. The approach is more middle to pull side. The exit velocity was clocked at 89 mph, baseball jumps off the bat. Ran the sixty-yard dash in 7.70. Defensively, prep steps are under control, fielding out front, throwing action is clean from a 3/4 slot, clocked at 74 mph. Off the mound, working from the set position, higher hand set, tall on the backside. The direction is inline, gets on top and works down hill. The arm action is smooth and clean on the backside, working from a higher slot. The fastball was clocked at 75 mph and dropped in a breaking ball at 61 mph. Projecting out more as a position player.
Exit Velocity: 89 mph
Arm Velocity: 74 mph
Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.70
