5-foot-10, 160 pound outfielder with some elbow lead in the arm swing.  Short arm path to a high-¾ slot.  Average carry, measured at 79 mph out of the hand, and some accuracy.   Left handed hitter works from a balanced, athletic position.  Loads back with a leg kick and short stride.  Some stiffness in the swing as the front side works early.  Pull tendency.  Bat sweeps through the zone.  Ran a 7.10 sixty.

Flashed arm side command on a fastball ranging 75-78 with slight run.  Good balance point, with a choppy rhythm to the delivery.  High-¾ slot from a short arm swing, with some stiffness and effort.  Shoulder work level and in line.  Slightly closed at foot strike.  Breaking ball sat 59-60 with 11/5 action.  Early at times.  Arm speed neared that of fastball, allowing for command in the zone, missing down but on-line at times.  The change-up is the third pitch, sitting 68-69.  In the zone, but with a slower arm speed.
