6-foot-1, 165 pound outfielder with a taller, slender build showed nice actions defensively fielding it well each attempt. Did a nice job coming up ready to throw after fielding it. Footwork was average. Throwing velocity was 83 mph. On the bump the right handed pitcher brings an athletic projectable build. Uses an average paced rhythmic delivery to the plate. Brings a high effort delivery with fluid motions. Releases the ball at slight variations of slot angles, mostly from the lower ¾ slot.  Delivery ends with a fall off to the first base side. Fastball is straight and stays true through the zone sitting 72-75 mph. Offers a nice change of pace with his changeup. Slows his delivery when he goes to the changeup as well. The righty spins off a sharp 11/5 curveball with good break at 62-64 mph. Curveball serves as his best secondary offering. Displays ability to throw all off-speed for strikes. Expect more from the athlete as he adds to his athletic frame and continues to develop. Starts in a wider setup at the plate from the right side. Incorporates a leg kick/bat tip combination to his loading sequence. Path is downhill, finds the barrel often, solid combination of strength and bat speed. Would see more natural ball flight with a more level stroke. Physical tools translate to the next level.

60-yard dash: 7.38

Outfield Velocity: 83

Exit Velocity: 82

6-foot, 150-pound prospect with thin, athletic frame. In the outfield, he does a good job fielding the ball to the outside of his body and creating momentum towards his target. Footwork is average. Transfer is clean and throws with some length to his arm action. Showed a little carry to his throws with top velocity of 80 mph. At the plate he keeps his hands loose during his leg kick load and controlled stride. Creates solid barrel whip through the zone as bat works on a level path. Did a very nice job of using his opposite field gap.

60 Yard Dash: 7.51
Position Velocity: 80
Exit Velocity: 74
