The 6-foot-3, 200-pound shortstop has a long, lanky frame with some present strength. Tall, slightly open stance with toe tap stride and good head-hand separation from the left side. Average bat speed but quickly whips the hands through the zone (22.9 mph) with an uphill swing plane and strong finish through contact. Lots of hard contact (T 92.3 exit; Avg: 88.4), peppering line drives and trying to drive the ball pull side. Could keep the barrel in the zone longer, but swings it with intent and authority. Defensively, moves well and presents the glove early while using his soft hands working into crisp transfers. Short arm action with good accuracy and solid strength (83 INF Velo). His size may slide him over to 3B, but nonetheless a left handed hitting bat that has the tools to stay on the left side of the infield.
