6/26/18
Right-handed bat that starts in a tall setup. Uses a small leg lift for timing as barrel flows to a vertical launch. Offers a balanced combination of strength and speed through the zone on a level path. Barrel shows some whip/authority through contact. Would be aided by more of a back load with hands to get more stretch/create balance. Behind the dish he starts a lower crouch before getting out with solid direction. Actions are fluid with exchange skills showing to be on par for class. Could easily see himself below 2.0 in pops with increased arm strength.
