5-foot-11, 180-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder and right-handed pitcher. He ran a 7.19 sixty at the event. The approach in the infield is appropriate as he works through the baseball. The glove is reliable and soft. He threw 74 across the diamond with accuracy. The bat has an exit velocity of 94 mph. The setup is narrown in base with an open front foot to start. The front foot closes down with a toe tap for timing. The path is flat and simple through the baseball. The hands work very welll and he displays gap to gap power at this point of his development. On the mound, the fastball sat 69-70 mph with minimal arm side action to it. The changeup is developing, sitting 60-61 mph. The delivery is repeated out of a 3/4 slot. The bottom half needs to be engaged in the delivery by sinking into the back half. The arm is clean.
