6/26/16 5-foot-8, 160-pound smaller, wiry right handed prospect in the 2020 class. Slower tempo delivery with a slight inward turn on the leg lift that requires regular effort. Does a nice job incorporating the lower half while carrying momentum down the mound and keeping the body directionally sound toward home plate. Clean arm with extension on the backside before coming through at high ¾ slot. Fastball was command to all quadrants of the zone at 73-77 mph. Showed only one offspeed offering being a 11/5 curveball with gradual break at 58-62 mph. Two-way prospect. A righty swinger that starts in a balanced setup. Uses a small leg lift for timing as hands stay simple throughout load. Nice level path with some loft. Showed a balanced combination of strength and batspeed through the zone with both tools developing. Contact type bat. At third base he uses direct, quiet feet playing from heels inside funnel. Ball skills are developing. Arm really works showing above average strength presently and projecting for more strength.
