(57.7 mph bat speed average). (18.1 mph hand speed average). Started in a wide balanced stance with a controlled load, then used a small closed stride. Had developing bat speed, level loose swing plane and level finish. He found some barrels with some loud contact. Gap to gap approach. Capable from the outfield, he made throws to the infield at velocities up to 76 mph; shows a natural clean exchange, developing in control feet, and developing hands. Fields the ball to the side, movements laterally were developing. Had consistent accuracy to the base and a high ¾ slot. Projectable on the mound, had a high ¾ arm angle with developing arm speed. Up-tempo type pitcher and uses some effort. Tall balance point with falling off shoulders. Lands closed with a falling off finish. Sat with his fastball at 72-73 mph; had arm side decent command and running sinking action. (Max spin 1789; Avg 1640). Had sweeping action and glove side decent command on his curveball (58-59).
