Body works quick/explosive towards the target. Everything stays timed up working together. Engages strong lower half. Fastball had sinking action, Changeup arm side fading action, Slider flashed sharp bite.
10/12/18 - Chipola commit. 6-foot, 180-pound two-way prospect who impressed on both sides. Offensively, he has a leg kick trigger and quick hands. There is some length and led to some timing issues, but there is bat speed and strength. Really stood out defensively where the athleticism and strength translates behind the plate. He is flexible and an above average receiver with pop times from 2.01-2.17. Really impressed again with him on the mound though. The arm action is simple, compact, clean and quick. The fastball has a lot of natural tilt and he commanded the pitch at the bottom of the zone at 88-91 mph. He also showed a feel for a curveball with depth at 77-78 mph and struck out two in two innings. Really intriguing athlete, will be a big impact two-way player if he makes it to Chipola.
10/15/17- Uncommitted. Very intriguing two way play. Behind the plate is is sound defensively with athleticism. Offensively, it is an aggressive swing with some length and bat speed. Had a single during the game. On the mound he has the most upside. Clean mechanically, strong front side, good lower half. Fastball worked 88-90 touched 91 mph with tilt and late life. Curveball was 76 mph with depth and showed an 82 mph changeup.
08/26/17- Uncommitted. Stands at 5-foot-10, 180 pounds with an athletic, compact build. At the plate he showed quick hands and consistently squared the ball up with multiple line drives all over the field along with some pull-side pop. Good hand-eye coordination and looks to drive the ball with an aggressive approach. Behind the plate he receives well and showcased a strong and accurate arm on his throws down to second topping out at 84 mph. On the mound he has a strong front side and lands in line throwing from a high ¾ slot. The fastball ranges from 89-91 mph, touching 92 along with an 82-83 mph change up with some fade and a 78-79 mph slider. The athleticism and versatility makes him one of the top uncommitted follows for his class.
10/08/16- 5-foot-10, 165 pounds with a short quick arm action with a fastball ranging from 86-88 mph. He also showed a curveball at 78 mph. He has a good, strong front side and lands in line throwing from a high ¾ slot. Interesting arm to follow.
