8/1/18
Lefty swinger that starts in a taller setup. Simple load followed by a nice, level stroke through the zone. Swing is easy and very loose/athletic. Expect much more to come as he fills out frame. Also looked the part at first base. Talented defender with well above average athleticism for the spot. Ball skills are ahead of the curve as well. Very fluid player on both sides of the ball.

The southpaw on the mound is a lanky, long limbed arm with a frame that can handle much more physical maturity. Lower effort delivery. Ball comes out of a high ¾ slot with deception.while hiding the ball well on the backside. Arm action is long with average arm speed. Fastball has some natural run at 64-67 mph. Better of the two offspeed offerings is the curveball at 59-61 mph. Shows a feel for the 1/7 breaker while constantly in the zone. Changeup shows occasional cut at 58-59 mph. Two-way prospect. A lefty swinger that starts in an athletic setup. Shows a slight back load with hands during leg kick for timing. Path is slightly downhill with developing speed/strength through the zone. Much more pop to come as physical maturation takes its course. Contact type bat presently. An above average athlete for the first base position. Gets off the bag well with quick feet. Ball skills are on par for class/position.
