Body Type: 6-foot-1 185-pound prospect with a projectable frame.

Swing Mechanics: Balanced stance from the right side. Uses a knee pinch for timing with a back load to hands.

Hit: Compact, downhill stroke that offers both physicality and hand speed. Feel hitter that sprayed line drives to opposite field. Would be aided by adding loft to stroke to produce more natural backspin to pull side. Ball comes off well.

Power: 85 mph exit velocity. Present gap abilities with more to come.

Offensive Projection: Middle of the lineup potential.

Run: 7.35 60-yard dash.

Field: Third baseman that plays with smooth actions and good rhythm. Feet work well and ball skills are ahead of the curve for class.
