Georgia Tech commit. Strong, proportionate frame at 6-0 180lbs with solid athleticism. Quick decision maker, high IQ at the dish, in the field, and on the basepaths. A vocal leader for his club. At the plate, stands balanced with weight evenly distributed between front and back legs, bat lays parallel to the ground above his back shoulder. Quiet pre-swing movements, all levers move directly and in sequence as he loads into launch position and strides. Manipulates the barrel well as he comes thru the zone. In clip, takes an 89mph outer-half FB the other way by extending his arms to keep his sweet spot in the zone just a tick longer and goes with the pitch for a backside triple. Can shoot liners all over the ballpark whenever he wants with a gap to gap approach. Barrel stays extremely level through contact and strong hands get the baseball to jump. Quality player in all facets of the game, will be able to stick at short with his natural athleticism and feel for the game but would also have success as a second or third basemen.
5-foot-9, 140 pounds; build that looks to add more size and strength. Has present all-around ability on the field. Fundamental player who showed the ability to play small with successful sac bunts and a bunt-for-a-hit. Also flashed gap-to-gap approach with multiple hard hit balls, including a line drive triple in the LC gap. Keeps head down on contact and stays through baseball. Active lower-half in swing with level bat path.
