Physical: Strong and projectable 6-foot-3, 200-pound frame with advanced physicality throughout the movements. 6.83 runner in the 60-yard dash showing off the sneaky athleticism he possesses.
Offensively: RHH. Tall, open stance with a slight bend into the backside knee as the hands started with rhythm off of the shoulder. Utilized a lift and replace stride with a quiet approach yielding an explosive, flat barrel path to enter the hitting zone with intent after launch. Routinely got through towards extension with lift creating natural backspin to the pull-side and easy home run power to LF. Peppered the LCF gap with hard line drives / deep fly balls during a standout batting practice round, got into the legs well and used his long levers to repeatedly contact the ball at the front of the plate. Recorded a peak bat-exit velocity of 99 mph per Trackman Baseball / 366 foot maximum batted ball distance to LF / 50 % hard hit percentage.
Defensively: The primary outfielder moved extremely well for his size covering ground in all directions on balls hit in the air, solid drop step technique and was able to play low through the baseball at the fielding window, approached the ball off the left side of his body with smooth transfers and an accurate, high ¾ arm-slot on the release showing accuracy towards the target. OF - 83 mph

6-foot-2, 190-pound two-way prospect showcased a well-rounded skill set. The right-handed hitter starts from a slightly open stance and uses a lift-and-replace stride to begin. Stays behind the baseball creating consistent back spin with current gap power. Registered a bat exit velocity of 87 mph and ran a 6.95 60-yard dash. Showcased athletic actions in the outfield with solid 86 mph arm strength. The righty also sat 82-84 off the mound from a high 3/4 arm slot working solely from the stretch. Curveball at 74-75 showed late, short slider break.

Athletic 6-foot-2, 190-pounder showcased a well-rounded skill set on the day. The right-handed hitter starts from a slightly open stance and utilizes a short, lift-and-replace stride to begin. Displayed good rhythm and balance to his swing with a feel for the barrel. The ball jumped off his bat and future power is a real possibility. Registered an 88 mph bat exit velocity and ran a 6.93 60-yard dash. Consistently played through the baseball defensively with accurate 79 mph arm strength from the outfield. The righty sat 75-79 on the mound out of a high 3/4 arm slot with slight natural cut to his fastball. Also displayed an above average curveball at 64-66 with tight 11/5 rotation.
