Starts in a balanced set up at the plate prior to getting into a knee pinch load with lower half. Hands move slightly back before firing the bat through the zone on a slightly uphill path. Swing shows both strength and speed with a bit more present strength. In the outfield he projects as a corner type. Plays fast with adequate ball skills. Arm is loose with slinging action, showing signs of more strength to come. Also worked out at first base. Gets off the bag well and he gets rid of it quickly on double play balls. Ball skills are above average at the first base position. Two-way prospect. On the bump the southpaw uses smooth tempo prior to speeding up on the descent of his leg lift. Displayed the same loose, slinging arm action on the hill he did in the outfield. Fastball comes out well sitting 75-78 mph and could have a bit more left in the tank. Changeup was a well above average offering, coming in at 72-73 mph. Tossed the offering with confidence and feel. Also spun a 1/7 shaped breaking ball with gradual action at 63-64 mph. Home to 1st: 4.65 Infield Velocity: 75 Outfield Velocity: 81 Exit Velocity: 82
3/19/16 5-foot-6, 150-pound prospect. A left-handed hitter that starts slightly open and uses a short, aggressive stride to get back to even. Hands stay simple before getting through the zone on a level path with some strength into contact. Registered a top exit velocity of 72 mph. Has a natural feel to the first base position. Plays low as he moved off the bag with athletic footwork and gets rid of the ball quickly on his double plays. Threw with 69 mph arm strength across the infield. Has a good feel for all 3 pitches. Uses a high leg kick, while throwing from a high ¾ arm angle. Fastball sat 67-72 mph downhill, dropped down to sidearm for a 70 mph fastball, and 60-63 mph sinking change up. Displayed two different curves, a 2/8 53-57 mph curve and 12/6 46-47 mph curve.
