A two-way prospect. At the plate he starts in a balanced setup from the left side. Uses a small leg lift for timing while taking hands back to launch. Barrel launches from a leg position and bat moves through the zone on a mostly level path. Barrel has whip through the zone and he generates above average bat speed. Sprays line drive to both field and has more juice in there as he fills out his athletic frame. In the outfield he has smooth actions and above average ball skills. Plays cleanly through the baseball and transitions well from fielding into his throws. Arm looks to be an above average tool. On the bump he has an uptempo delivery that requires little effort. Arm works through a near high-¾ slot with adequate arm speed. Fastball will regularly run arm side and sit 73-75 mph. Uses a 1/7 shaped breaking ball as his secondary offering. The pitch is a big breaker and has the ability to freeze or get hitter so chase.
