A top of the lineup type bat from the left side. A back leg hitter that takes an uphill path to contact. Bat is very quick and strength shows up at contact with barrel accelerating through the baseball with ease. His uphill path caused some inconsistencies in ball flight but ball jumped when he made flush contact. A good athlete with gap abilities. An outfielder with athletic actions and obvious feel for the spot. Does a nice job of balancing aggression and control out there. Footwork is well timed, varying tempo to create the hop he wants and play through it with ease. Showed traits of a possible center fielder at the next level.

2/19/17 5-foot-11, 173-pound prospect with athletic frame. On the mound the southpaw has an uptempo delivery that requires some effort. Arm action is shorter with definite quickness to his arm. Works through an over the top slot, showing off a three-pitch mix. Fastball showed run at times while sitting 75-77 mph, topping at 78 mph. His best off speed pitch is his breaking ball. The spinner has a slurvish look to it with sharpness and depth at 61-65 mph. Also showed a changeup, using fastball arm speed at 73-74 mph. Offensively, he stays fluid throughout his loading sequence, incorporating a leg kick and barrel tip. Bath gets through the zone on a downhill path with above average bat speed. Consistently found the barrel and showed gap to gap pop in batting practice. Solid hitter. Natural feel for the outfield position. Approaches the ball aggressively and plays through it. Smooth transfer and exchange. Throws with short arm action through high ¾ slot. Top velocity of 79 mph.
