1/16/17 - 60 Time: 7.46, Position Velocity: OF-80, Exit Velocity: 85 5-foot-10, 140-pound, LHH hits from a taller and slightly open stance with some higher initial hand positioning, uses a longer and closed stride with a rhythmic barrel tilt to get loaded, lower half gets through well but can seem to drag at times because of his closed alignment, bat path comes into the zone fairly steep but can flatten out and provide some real lift as he gets through the ball, good bat speed helps provide some gap-to-gap pop. Defensively, showed soft hands and pretty good footwork in the outfield, played through the ball confidently, exchange used a couple of extra steps at times but would probably be more controlled in a game situation, arm action is a little longer through a high ¾ release point. Certainly a 2020 to follow closely.
