Confident fielder, moves well around bag, soft glove, easy receiver on throws, accurate arm with above avg. strength, 82 mph arm strength across diamond. Runs enough that corner outfield could be option as well. On mound; shows tempo and rhythm in delivery, compact arm action, slightly uncontrolled front leg, lands and releases upright to plate.
