Offensive Notes: Knee tuck gather w/ a front foot swivel. Looks to lift the ball in the air to with a loose barrel that works back and down as he starts his move.
Max BP Exit Velocity: 93mph.
Max BP Distance: 331ft.
Defensive Notes: 1B with a frame/skill set for the position. Looks comfortable over there/well versed at the spot. Solid showing.
Throw: Showed developing arm strength.

2/9/19
Body Type: 6-foot, 270 pounds. Sturdy build.
Swing Mechanics: Balanced, open setup. Smooth load that creates balance.
Hit: Level swing with some loft. Swing offers obvious strength with some hand speed. Ball comes off well. Feel hitter that can do damage when he runs into it. All fields guys.
Power: Gap Pop. 82 mph exit velocity.
Offensive Projection: Middle of the Lineup that projects to hit for average as well.
Run: 8.47 60-yard dash.
Field: In the infield he plays under control too and through. Very easy, fluid actions. Ball skills are on par for class. Looks more athletic and comfortable over at first base, giving him a higher ceiling at the spot in college.
Throw: Short, compact arm action with average strength and present accuracy. 69 mph arm strength across the diamond.
Defensive Projection: 1B.
2/9/19
Body Type: 6-foot, 270 pounds. Sturdy build.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Right hander throws with a ¾ arm slot that showed a quick, shorter arm action. Tempo provided is a slower paced rhythm and remains consistent throughout his motion.
Fastball: 69-72 mph. Displays some glove-side run while throwing it for strikes. Command was more effective out of his windup with this pitch.
Curveball: 61-64 mph. Slower breaking ball with developing action. Arm speed slowed down on this pitch compared to others.
Changeup: 67-69 mph. Not much movement onit right now but expect that to change soon. Also maintained it at the bottom of the strike zone.
Pitchability: Younger right hander that has playable actions on the mound. Arm speed on all pitches overall as well as release point are improving as he gets more experience. Time is on his side for development in the next couple of years.
Role: TBD
