Pitching: RHP - Worked quickly from the stretch only, fast cross body leg lift and move forward, got the arm up on time and through 75-79, T80 mph FB to both sides (arm side run).

Offensively: RHH - Tall, open stance with the barrel pointed up and down in the setup. Utilized a quick lift and replace stride with increased repeatability in order to initiate the hands through a fluid, slightly uphill path into the hitting zone. Demonstrated a mostly lofty approach consistently driving fly ball (75% fly ball rate) to the pull-side during batting practice. Hit into a stiff front side with occasional extra rotation across the ball towards the foul line; recorded a peak bat-exit velocity of 80 mph per Trackman Baseball with room for more down the road.
Defensively: The outfielder featured average footwork with a moderately soft glove hand at the fielding window. Fielded off of his left foot with choppy actions at times and showed no issues in the transfer phase getting to a fluid, high ¾ slot on the release (77 mph OF arm).
Pitching: RHP - The righty started from the left side of the rubber with a slight bent setup in the knees; worked quickly with a fast pace in the delivery showing hip coil at the top of the stack as the arm raced down the mound. The FB ranged from 73-74 T76 with arm-side run (14 inches HM) and worked off of it well dropping in a 60 mph curveball with up to 13.2 inches of HM across the plate. A 62 mph CH was thrown with average intent and could be a quality pitch if sold better.
