Thin frame with room for growth at 6 foot 1, 150-pounds.  Stable over the rubber with a quiet head through the leg lift to the mid-chest.  Simple separation with a medium arm swing working to a high-3/4 slot.  Simple, smooth, and relaxed, does a good job of repeating the delivery.  Quick arm has looseness and an ease through release.  Fastball flooded the zone at 75-77.  Consistent run working to both sides of the plate and a spin rate at 1956.  Tight cutter at 69-72 with good spin and late, short action.  Cutter spin rate up to 2184 rpm.    Breaking ball works from average arm speed with 1/7 tilt at 65-67, 2208rpm.  Change-up showed run and cut action, lacking consistent feel.  Decent arm speed to create deception.  Around the zone, but not the advanced feel of his fastball at 67-72.   1770 spin rate on the change.  Strike thrower with a clean arm and frame that can add strength, we should continue to see his stock rise in the coming seasons.
Relaxed, slightly open setup from the left side.  Short stride with his hands cocking, creating some bat angle during his load.  Loose hands with a short barrel path to the ball.  Keeps his barrel in the zone with a middle of the field approach.  Average bat speed with his exit velocity recorded at 80 mph.  Plays fluid through balls in the outfield with average hands.  Clean transfers with an accurate arm from an over the top slot.  Positional velocity topped at 80 mph.  Recorded a 7.36 in the 60.

Average frame with length in the limbs at 6-foot-1, 150 pounds.  Simple delivery, stable over the rubber.  Small side step, lifting to the low chest.  Long arm swing, clean, with average to above arm speed, working to a high-3/4 slot.  Level through the shoulder, working on-line, landing in-line and square.   Front side can be soft at foot strike, occasionally falling toward 3B.  Fastball has arm side run, attacking the zone at 74-77.  Gradual tilt on the breaking ball with 1/7 shape at 64-66.  Body tends to fall away from breaking ball on release creating some command issues.  Flashed a solid change with some deception out of the hand at 70.

6 foot 1, 150-pound lanky frame with plenty of room for maturation ahead.  Deliberate, slow tempo to his delivery starting with a side step going into his leg lift that works up to the bottom of his chest.  In line to the plate with a close toe landing. Breaks from the glove at the belt with a medium arm action, hiding the ball behind his body, throwing from a high ¾ slot.  Gets some run and sink on his fastball ranging from 71-76 mph. Has feel for his breaking ball with gradual break and 12/6 action at 61-63 mph. Flashed a changeup with fade at 66-68 mph.  Overall, a strike thrower who should see his stuff progress as his body gets stronger.
