Recorded a 60 time of 7.45 at the event. Projectable on the mound, used a high ¾ arm angle and a loose arm action while showing good arm speed. Drop-and-drive type pitcher and shows some effort. He has even shoulders and tall balance point. Lands square with a falling off finish. Sat with his fastball at 66-68 mph; has consistent control and sinking action with tight movement. Throws a 11/5 curveball (61-62) that shows command around the zone and gradual action. Had fading action and some command on his changeup (58-59).
