Another advanced two-way talent for Ohio. In the box it's simple mechanically before showing well above average burst through the zone. Path is efficient, playing to both gaps w/natural spin. Run producer upside. Defensively he appears to be sure-handed over at the hot corner w/feel for the position. It's early but looks most at home on the mound. T83, arm works - shows well above arm speed for class. CB has later, sharp action w/signs of swing and miss down the road.
