6/26/18 The 5-foot-11, 175-pound southpaw with a physical build. Slower tempo delivery with a higher balance point requiring some effort. Uses a drop and drive style motion that does take energy down the mound efficiently. High ¾ slot with a long, loose arm action that gets extension on the front side. Fastball shows natural run from the lefty at 75-78 mph. Curveball shows gradual break with 1/7 shape that does create depth at 61-64 mph. Changeup should be the go to offspeed pitch at 72-73 mph while maintaining near fastball arm speed. Once again impressed with hit tool. Loose, whippy swing with impressive feel for the barrel. Barrels up everything in game and in BP. Type of guy that projects to hit for a higher average. 60-yard dash: 7.83 Exit Velocity: 82
7/18/17 A 5-foot-10, 160-pound prospect. Offensively, he is a left-handed bat that starts in a taller seutp. Mechanically simple, uses a slight back load during his short stride. Stays balanced and under control throughout swing sequence. Path is level and swing is compact. Does a nice job of staying inside the baseball. Showed feel for the barrel with the ability to produce consistent ball flight. Top of the lineup guy presently who should grow into added pop with maturity. Roped a double and a triple down the rightfield line in game play. Brings an athletic presence to the first base position. Moves off the bag well, showing smooth actions. Glove skills are above average. Solid defender for the spot. Home to First: 4.67 Inf Velo: 74 Exit Velo: 80
