5-foot-7, 120 pound left-handed hitting outfielder had a tee exit velocity of 74 mph. He hits out of a square, balanced stance, with the hands set close to the face. He loads the weight to the backside before attacking the hitting zone with a flat swing-plane. He extends well through contact, which led to a lot of hard line drives.
Defensively, he threw 55 mph from the outfield. The feet were active as he attacked the ball. His breakdown into the fielding position was controlled, with the glove out in front. The transition to the throwing position was good. The glove to ball exchange takes place around the chest and he gets the ball out, above the back shoulder. The hips and shoulders are in line with the target and he finishes through over his front leg, with a clean arm-circle.
On the mound, he works primarily out of the stretch, using simple movements. He posts over the back leg with good balance before heading down the mound. As he works down the mound, his direction is good. The arm is clean and works out of a low ¾ slot. The fastball was consistently in the zone at 59-61 mph.
