2/17/18

An infield with good reactions off the bat and very quick feet. Plays low, displaying above average ball skills through fielding. Glove works to both sides with athletic actions on the move. Swings it from the right side, starting in a wider setup with majority of weight on back leg. Pre launch movements are simple and start early. Path is slightly uphill with more strength than speed to his hands through the zone. Has feel for the barrel and creates natural loft. Could develop into a regular extra base hit threat as bat speed catches up to strength.

Home to First: 4.53
Infield Velocity: 72
Exit Velocity: 79

5-foot-8, 140-pound prospect. Uses a double tap load to initiate his loading sequence at the plate. Stride is aggressive and controlled. Hands stay simple prior to taking a flat path to the baseball. Bat has obvious quickness to it. Showed impressive pop to his pull side. Projects as a second base type. Shows some athleticism in his feet. Presents his glove early and creates some stiffness to his actions. Throws from ¾ slot with short arm action. Arm strength needs to improve to stay on the left side.

Home to 1st: 4.48
Exit Velocity: 79
