Body: 6-0, 170-pounds. Long and lean build with room for added strength and size in the future.
Hit: RHH. Starts with a neutral stance and athletic posture with hands getting set at shoulder height. Short load into the back side.  Utilizes a quick two tap stride with smooth rhythm and early timing.  Lower half works linearly through the zone into a firm front leg.  Slight uphill bat path with a short and compact swing.  Hands work quickly through the zone.  Attacks the ball out in front of the plate with a pull side approach and gets good extension.

Arm: RH.  INF - 77 mph.  High 3/4 arm slot with a short arm action.
Defense: Attacks the ball with shorter strides and controlled rhythm.  Shows good lateral range and ability to change the arm slot when the play dictates.  Smooth slow roller technique with clean and quick exchanges out of the glove.
Run: 7.50 runner in the 60. 

Delivery: Rocker style footwork around the rubber working to an easy pivot foot.  Slow and methodical rhythm and pace to the delivery.  Works to a mid height balance point with a strong weight stack onto the back leg.  Tall and fall style motion down the mound with a short sink into the lower half.  Works from the middle of the rubber and strides directionally down the center of the mound with good momentum headed towards the plate.
Arm Action: RH. High 3/4 arm slot with a short arm action.
FB: T78.5, 77.0-78.1 mph. Mostly straight shape with some riding life through the zone. T1925, 1859 average rpm.
