5-foot-9, 150-pound, smaller, strong athletic frame. Showing twitchy actions, an athlete. A right-handed hitter, at the plate, a balanced stance, starting slightly open, higher flat setup. The lower half is under control, small pick up and put down. The swing is short to the baseball, across the chest, a level path, finishing higher with one hand. The approach is more middle to pull side, squared the baseball up, with solid line drives. The exit velocity was clocked at 79 mph, comes off the bat well for a 2024. An average runner, ran a 7.53, plays faster than times, look for it to drop. Defensively, feet are active, gets around the baseball, slightly wider feet on the catch, could get into a more athletic position, glove is soft out front, working low to ground. The arm action, is shorter on the backside, working from a higher slot, clocked at 65 mph. Threw 68 mph from outfield, approach was under control, shorter stride, throws up hill at times. Off the mound, simple delivery, forward lean to it, could stay over rubber a tick longer, arm is short working from high 3/4 slot. The direction is inline with minimal pull to glove side. The fastball was clocked at 67 mph. The breaking ball was rolled in at 57 mph, will need to add more fastball hand speed, more slider break to it. Like the strength and swing for a younger player.
