10/1/17 - 60 Time: 7.7, Position Velocity:  OF - 81
5'10, 205-pound, LHH had a similar look to last weekend, shows elite bat speed and all-around corner OF tools.  Special hitter w/ extension through the zone and back-spin.  Improved his 60 time since last year.  A must-see 2021 going into the HS season.

9/24/17 - Home-1st: 4.69, Position Velocity:  86, Exit Velocity: 93
5-foot-10, 205-pound, LHH shows excellent pull power that stacks up with any hitter in the country.  Short, athletic frame w/ some physical projection remaining.  In the box, the lefty hits in a narrow, upright stance w/ back shoulder hand location and slight bat waggle.  Leg kick w/ proper load.  Does a good job keeping weight back and stay on off-speed pitches.  Excellent bat speed.  Power to all fields.  Put on a show in BP w/ numerous home runs out to right field.  Gets a little pull happy in games for fastballs, but will improve at that as he matures.  Consistent loud contact.  Defensively, moves well in the OF w/ above avg arm strength.  One of the top 2021 prospects in the country.

9/24/17 - Max FB: 84, FB: 81-84, CB: 69-72, CH: 71-73,
5-foot-10, 205-pound, LHP featured the top LHP velocity of the event while showing two potential above avg off-speed pitches.  Pitches from a full wind-up w/ a step towards the plate and setting of the back foot on the first base side of the rubber.  Balance point to hip drive to H ¾ release w/ ultra quick arm.  Repeatable mechanics, just needs more reps.  FB w/ arm side run and sink.  Gets on hitters.  CB is tight, medium downer that flashes proper rotation.  Struggled to get it out in front on this outing, but will come w/ time and reps.  CH w/ arm speed, above avg fade.  Flashes as out pitch.  More of a thrower learning how to pitch right now.  Mechanics suggest control and command will come with time.  Exciting 2021 LHP prospect.
