6-foot, 185-pound right-handed hitting two-way prospect, proportional, athletic build, room for additional strength, ran a 6.91 laser-timed 60. Offensively, balanced setup, hands drop and load back smoothly, good rhythm, short stride, good balance through finish. Takes a middle/pull approach with pull-side power, drives the ball with smooth swing, early timing, gets to the ball out front, looks to elevate with an uphill swing path through the zone, 88 exit velocity off a tee. Defensively, long arm action to a ¾ slot, throws showed some carry at 86. Showed fluid actions, plays through the ball athletically, clean footwork, able to range and get feet set properly behind the ball, clean on transfers. On the mound, arm plays long, reaching back, accelerates out to a ¾ slot. Tall and fall delivery, works on-line, lands square, finishes upright with some crossing over, easy effort throughout. Fastball, sat 83-84, touched 85, run and sink. Curveball, 11/5 shape, depth, 73-75.
