5-foot-10, 140-pound, still developing frame. The right-hander works from a high-¾ slot with a short, compact arm stroke and repeatable delivery. His fastball ranged from 69-73 mph with good feel for the strike zone. Throws a slurve at 59-62 mph with 10-4 shape, and a sinking changeup at 57-61 mph. As a two-way player, the right-handed hitter starts from a balanced setup, working into a slightly crouched stance with a short toe-tap stride. Currently a contact approach, Matamoros hit line drives in the middle to opposite side of the field during batting practice. At shortstop, the freshman has soft hands from a fundamental fielding position, gathering the ball with rhythm to the mid-line of his body. He throws accurately across the diamond at 70 mph. Matamoros ran a 7.72 60-yard dash.
