5-foot-9, 170-lb proportional frame w/ some strength and square hips. LHH balanced, slightly crouched stance w/ short, simple load and gets on plane early. Generates above average bat speed and controls the barrel thru contact. Middle approach, above average pop for age (T 86.4), w/ future projection. Defensively, still a bit raw behind the plate, but shows signs of upside as he develops. Sounds receiver w/ good hands, but slower transfers and average arm strength w/ solid accuracy (67 C Velo: 2.34 Pop). 8.55 runner.
