5-foot-8, 170-pound, thick, solid athletic frame. A right-handed hitting third baseman, at the plate, starts slightly open, hands are loose at the shoulders. The lower half is under control, small pick up and put down with stride foot. The hands could have more separation, getting them back into a loaded position. The swing is down to level, approach is more line drive to the pull side. The tee exit velocity was clocked at  74 mph, could stay through it a tick longer,finishing above the shoulder would help, shows to have good strength for his age. Ran a 4.88 from home to 1st. Defensively, threw 65 mph, across the diamond, working out of a natural 3/4 slot. The hands are soft, catches everything out front, clean transfer to throwing arm. Moved well to glove side, showed rhythm on the slow roller pro move. Strength and conditioning is a must, will aid in all phases of the game.
