An impressive young build at 6-foot-1, 200 pounds, with strength.  Right handed hitter works from a tall, athletic base leading to a long stride.  Makes up for a lack of a load in his hands with a rocking rhythm, as he presses his weight from the front side to the back side to load.  Above average bat speed, with some swagger throughout the BP session.  Uphill leverage flashed some current power and definite future power.  Fluid rhythm with barrel awareness and quickness.  Exit velocity topped at 93mph and played on the field with the leverage in the swing.  Very calm on defense.  Average hands and arm.  Feet tend to be a little flat, leading to longer exchanges.  Long arm swing works to a high-3/4 slot.  Limited on some of his accuracy, but can improve with better rhythm in the feet.  Arm strength touched 78mph across the infield.  Ran a 7.47 sixty.
