Physical: Lean and lanky 6-foot-6, 152-pound frame with extreme projectability / long levers on the bump. Penn State Harrisburg commit.
Pitching: RHP - Works out of the stretch only on the left side of the rubber, medium leg lift with repeatable, straight line leg drive out of the stack, gets downhill and out over the front side as the arm played through a long and easy, high ¾ slot. FB appeared from 75-79 mph with good extension and 2184 max spin per Trackman Baseball, mixed in a 67-70 mph SL with short horizontal plane, countered with a 69-71 mph straight CH. Plenty of potential as he continues filling out.
