5-foot-10, 180-pound mature frame.
In the box, the right-handed hitter had an exit velocity of 72 mph. Began in an open stance
with a wrapping load, then used a short stride before his swing. Shows better bat
speed than exit velocity indicates and an upward swing plane, ends his swing with high finish. Line drive
approach. In the infield, made throws across the field up to 81 mph; has sure hands, a quick
exchange and smooth footwork. Showed a short quick
arm action with a ¾ slot. He recorded a time of 8.06 in the 60-yard dash. On the mound, had
quick arm speed with a short arm action. He is a feel type pitcher. Balance point is strong
during delivery. Lands square. His fastball came in at 78-81 mph. Has a tight curveball (68-
71) that shows low in the zone command and was arguably the best of the event. His slight changeup (74-75) has fading action.
