Physical: Strong, athletic 6-foot, 195lb frame with increased durability in the actions. 6.99 runner in the 60-yard dash. 

Offensively: RHH - Balanced, slightly open stance at just outside shoulder-width. Utilized a short lift and replace stride towards the pitcher with rhythm in the hands, initiating the bat head through a flat, direct path with tons of bat-speed present. Natural middle of the order approach, getting the most out of his lower half and creating separation into the zone (T95 mph exit, 47% line drive rate, 73% hard hit rate via Trackman). Impressive batting practice round, stinging the ball to pull with occasional home run juice when catching it out in front as the sequencing takes over (354 foot batted ball distance). Hunted FB’s in game action and didn’t get cheated, taking huge cuts early in counts. 

Defensively: The primary third baseman moved around methodically, positioning himself to the right of the baseball and then working down through in a straight straight line towards the target. Fielded off the middle of his body from a moderate posture, funneling softly and releasing from H ¾ with repeatable movements. Handled plays to his glove-hand side well and showed accuracy across the diamond with low intent (77 mph arm).
