5-foot-10, 170-pounds with a thicker, more developed upper half than our previous look last summer. Sets up with feet at shoulder width in a slightly crouched, athletic stance. Takes a short forward stride into landing. Hands stay low with slight push back prior to beginning swing. Holds direction with posture and lets hands work easily. High finish thru contact with mostly line-drive contact in BP. Big jump in exit velocity from last summer. Defensively, starts in a wide, pre-pitch set up with tall posture. Worked to get around ball and kept momentum going while coming thru. Clean exchange with quicker release depending on the speed of the play. Soft, consistent glove hand. Short, easy arm action from low ¾ release. On the mound, kept a slower paced delivery with repeatable actions. Comes out of tall leg lift with some flexion on his back leg as he separates and gets down the mound. Shoulder plane stays closed/level throughout. Cross action landing. Compact arm action with some hesitation after hand break. Continues to show 3 pitch offering that he can keep around the zone. Tall, upright finish after release.
Hitting/Defense: Starts in wide, athletic base with front foot slightly open. Starts with slight knee bend and weight shifted onto backside. Rocks back to load while creating rhythm between upper and lower half. Hands stay tight to body, keeping barrel inside of the ball. Showed best contact to middle of the field. Heads stays down thru contact. Creates some leverage by finishing with tall, upright posture. Defensively, sinks hips to get low while funneling ball in. Smooth, easy strides while moving laterally. Maintains body control throughout, doesn’t rush the play. Clean, loose arm action with some whip after low ¾ release. Accurate throws with consistent carry to the target.
Pitching: Works from the far, 1st base side of the rubber. Simple, controlled delivery with deliberate tempo throughout. Slight bend on backside as he gets into leg lift. Weight stays gathered over rubber while he separates hands down center of body. Glove side stays level with lead shoulder as he gets down the slope. Slight cross action at landing. Full arm swing but avoids wrapping the ball behind him. High ¾ release with tall finish. FB shows consistent downward angle with occasional arm side run. Found the bottom of the zone with his CH, flashing some late fade as it gets to the catcher. Flashed 11/5 breaking ball as well for his 3rd offering.
