Body Type: 6-foot-1, 165-pound thin frame. Mechanical/Delivery Notes: An explosive lower half that looks efficient. A smooth arm action that is repeatable but doesn’t get out front every pitch. Fastball: 80-83mph. Arm side movement with life to it. A solid offering that locates on the corners. Curveball: 58-60mph. An average offering on a 11/5 plane. Paired with a hard 69-72mph 9/3 slider that has tight spin and is best of the off speed offerings. Pitchability: Strike thrower. Additional Notes: A live arm to watch.
