Highly competitive athlete, left-handed hitter. Walked in his first two plate appearances and grounded out to pitcher. Showed his baseball IQ when he made an inside slide at home to avoid tag despite ball beating him by a foot. Umpire made correct call without the aid of instant replay.

Don’t know much about the world of football recruiting, but no doubt he has a bright future in baseball. Has advanced left-handed plate approach. Slightly open stance, lower hand position, aggressive lower half. Generates considerable bat speed. Defensively, has plenty of arm at third base and moves well laterally. Has potential to be high-level national recruit.
1/20/13 - Strong athletic build, 6-foot, 185-pound left-handed hitting third baseman. Projects to be high-level prospect in Midwest, potentially in nation.

Shows solid balance throughout, bat speed present, 80 mph exit velocity, flashes occasional power. Strong lower half with developed calves contribute to barrel whip through zone.
