Physical: Large, even proportioned 6-foot-4, 210lb frame with durability and projection on the bump.
Pitching: RHP - Sets up off the middle/left side of the rubber with a short side rocker step leading into a moderate leg lift at waist height, strides in-line towards the plate and got over the front side well after footstrike from a loose, high ¾ slot with no reactions in the arm-swing. The FB landed for strikes with plenty of arm-side run (13 inches average via Trackman) while pounding the zone at a 58%+ rate. Mixed a tight 71-73 mph SL with swing and miss qualities (2218 rpms average, 18 inches HM max), countering with a diving 76-78 mph CH thrown with high intent (1589 spin average).
