2/11/18
A right-handed hitter that starts in a balanced setup. Barrel flows through a bat tip movement during his short stride forward. Path shows natural loft with above average natural tools through the zone. Stays inside the baseball well and can backspin the ball to either gap. In the infield he is mechanically sound and plays low through the baseball. Actions are smooth and glove works well. Arm has room to improve but with his quick transfer it still plays up the middle. A solid player with a definite college future.

Infield Velocity: 76

Young looking, 5-foot-10, 140-pound body frame, with lots of room to fill out with. From the infield he uses good footwork to approach ground balls, playing through the baseball. He fields with his hands out in front nicely. Throws using a clean, short arm action coming from a ¾ slot with 66 mph arm strength across the infield.
