Body: 5’11’’, 150 pounds. Strong, athletic frame. Hit: RHH. Hits from a balanced, upright, square stance at the plate. Slight hand rhythm with a smooth back load and really nice hand separation. Small stride, attacking the ball with intent and gets through the ball really well with solid extension through and past contact. Fast bat speed through contact with an uphill swing path and some lower half involvement. Really solid middle to pull side approach. Power: 84 mph exit velocity during BP per TrackMan. Occasional pop to the pull side with more projected as strength develops. Arm: LH. OF - 76 mph. Throws with longer arm action from a high three-quarter slot. Defense: Plays through the ball well with quick, active feet. Fields the ball out in front mostly to the middle of the body with quick transfers and a slight crow-hop into accurate throws. Run: 7.56 60-Yard Time.
Delivery: Starts out of the stretch with his feet shoulder width apart. After easing into his delivery, presents a quick arm through the release. Lands consistently in good field position after the delivery. On this day, worked the lower half of the strike zone with a three pitch mix. Arm Action: LH. Quick with whip. FB: T80 mph, 77-79 mph. Arm side fade. Average spin rate of 1893 rpm per TrackMan. CB: 67-68 mph. 2/7 shape. Average spin rate of 2583 rpm per TrackMan. CH: 73-75 mph.
