6-foot, 175-pound prospect. The righty uses a quick tempo in the delivery. Creates some shoulder tilt and finishes slightly closed throwing across his body. There is some quickness in the arm. Working from a high ¾ slot with a short arm action. The fastball sat 71-74 with cutting action. His breaking ball has 11/5 shape, the pitch breaks early, but shows some depth at 56-60 mph. He also threw a 61-63 mph changeup with cutting action. Uses a toe turn to initiate loading sequence at the plate. Chokes up on the handle to control the barrel. Takes a short, compact path to the ball. Consistently found the barrel and worked well to the middle of the field. Bat has some quickness to it. At first, he shows average feet and hands. Would like to see him play more from his toes. Transfer shows some length to it along with long arm action on his throws.
