6-foot-1, 170-pound, long, slender athletic frame, with plenty of room to fill out. A right-handed pitcher, the delivery is smooth, with little effort in it. One of the better arms to take part in this workout, he had a very good outing. The arm action is a clean, free and easy, ball comes out of a high ¾ slot. The fastball was poured in there for strikes at the knees, was clocked at 81-84 mph and comes out of his hand well. The breaking ball was thrown at 71-75 mph has good tilt and spin. The changeup has above average feel, thrown for strikes consistently and was clocked at 73-74 mph. Times to the plate were 1.38, tempo was good and worked quickly. The lower half could get involved a little more and at times pulls with the front side. Big time follow for me, fastball is going to jump and has shown the ability on multiple times to throw three pitches for strikes.

I love the potential on the mound, has a feel for all three pitches and the body projects to fill out very nicely. On the mound, got up to 82 with a fastball with arm side run. The delivery is simple with a little coil and a wide front side. The arm path is long and quick, the arm is long and lanky. Big feet to boot. The breaking ball is short and tight, getting to 71. Showed a feel for the minus pitch at 70. Pitches from a ¾ arm slot. As a positional player, threw 78 from the infield with a solid glove. Made a few nice plays in the game. At the plate, had a 85mph tee exit velocity out of a high elbow, even base swing. The hands work but the bat needs strength to it. Guy on the mound in the future.
