Balanced, using a leg kick to get to a high-¾ slot. Pull emphasis in a swing dominated by the top hand. Exit velocity topped at 85 mph. Soft hands and good feet work to catch the ball consistently. Lacks some bend in the hips at the point of the catch, but funnels and gathers with good pace and a feel for the speed of the game. Long arm action works with looseness to a high-¾ slot. 74 across the diamond with average carry and decent accuracy. Ran a 7.75 sixty.
Fastball showed hard, late run from a ¾ slot at 78-80. Sweepy breaking ball with gradual action sat at 68. Change up ranged 69-70, straight but with deception in the hand speed. Feel for the zone in all three pitches.
