Physical: 6-2, 200 pounds; Athletic, muscular build. 7.05 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet shoulder width apart; has a pre-pitch bat waggle. Loads straight back with an up and down stride for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing a strong lower half. Showed a direct swing path with a two handed finish. More line drives than flyballs and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of R95/L98 MPH via Trackman.
Defensively: Starts with a balanced setup; uses prep step while showing choppy feet. Hands are off to the side with a clean transfer. Long arm swing from a standard 3/4 arm slot. OF - 80 MPH.
Pitching: Uses a glove side setup while using a side step. Mid chest leg drive with a slight coil away from the plate. Has a long stride landing inline with the plate. Moderate arm swing while arm stays in line with 2B; standard 3/4 slot. Recoils with finish. FB: Peak velo of 82 MPH, while sitting 78-81 MPH; arm side run. SL: 64-66 MPH; slurve like. CH: 75-76 MPH; maintains the same plain.
Physical: Proportional, durable 6-foot-1, 170lb frame with some strength. 7.53 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH - Loose, upright stance with lots of pre-swing rhythm. Took the hands back on the load, gathering beyond the shoulder for launch, as a leg-lift stride initiated the swing through a slightly uphill path into the zone. Lifted towards a higher two-handed finish on the backside, producing a 70% fly ball rate in a lofty approach, and recorded a 318 foot distance at his peak (via Trackman). Showed off intentful hacks, phasing into a tall and stiff front-side at impact en route to a T86 mph bat-exit velocity (doubles power).
Defensively: The outfielder gained momentum with some good reads off the bat. Trusted his instincts and worked fluidly from the catch point off his left side into release (clean movements, held rhythm, accurate H ¾ slot, 69 mph arm). Created range to either side with longer strides.
Pitching: RHP - Set up off the middle of the rubber with gradual, momentum building pace in the delivery. Swung the leg up/down and gained energy downward towards the target, driving on-time at footstrike through the backside hip. Separated well at release (H ¾ slot) with a full arm-circle that showed repetition. The FB ranged from 71-74 mph with strike-throwing ability (arm-side) mixing an 11/5 tilting, 60-63 mph CB with short shape.
