Really liked the swing. Load is simple yet efficient, flowing into a balanced launch. Path has some loft with a balanced combination of strength and speed through the zone. Ball jumps and he can lift the ball naturally. Solid round of BP. In the infield he plays with quick feet and soft hands. Does a nice job of playing low through fielding. Second baseman arm.

At the plate he gets things started with a leg lift load. Hands move back to his shoulder prior to launch. Path is level with impressive strength through contact. Ball comes off his bat well and he was able to produce backspin to the middle of the field. Skill set plays anywhere in the lineup. In the infield he does a nice job of playing low and under control. Glove skills are there and he displayed quick exchange skills. Arm strength would indicate skill set best fits at second base. On the mound the right-hander has a fluid delivery that he is able to repeat. Uses long back arm action and goes throws through a high-¾ slot. Offers a three pitch mix with his fastball sitting 71-74 mph. Breaking ball has an 11/5 shape with gradual break at 58-59 mph. Also flashed a changeup at 65-66 mph. Out of his secondary offering he looks to be more comfortable with his breaking ball.
