6-foot-1, 150-pound right-handed hitting 2-way player. Thin athletic frame on mound, hangs over rubber with front foot outside body, slingy arm action, low ¾ slot, ball jumps on hitter with sneaky quickness. Fastball was 82-84 mph with above avg. run and sink. Quality slider with 10/4 shape and late break for strikes. Slight run on changeup with late fading action in bottom of zone. 4.91 home to first time. Slight leg kick trigger, high back elbow, stiffness to swing, flashes hard line drive contact when extended, 75 mph exit velocity. Long and athletic in field, works through ball, occasional elevated release, covers ground well, 82 mph arm strength from outfield. 79 mph arm across infield.
