Positional Profile: RHP/OF RHP: FB sat 87-88 with some ASR. Good spin to it as well sitting 2300rpm. Athletic arm with a solid build, showing lower strength. SL has a slurvy action with some depth to it. Sinker/slider style of guy with ability to spin the baseball. Lots of upside and will only get better with maturity.
Body: 5-11, 180-pounds. Good build/fram to add strength in future. Width to shoulders and back. Good lower.
Delivery: Works from the stretch with a high lift and small coil at the top. Gets into front leg with ability to get over it more.

Positional Profile: OF/RHP Interesting RHP. Like the upside to FB velocity, can firm command with zone. Shows ability to spin baseball, CB/SL action looks blended at times. Will have at least avg action to both, like to the upside as he develops ability separate action between CB/SL. RHH…like the swing, opportunities for adjustments present, upside to bat/power combo with changes.
Body: 5-11, 172-pounds. Good build/frame for adding strength. Well proportioned, showing some strength to lower now.
Delivery: 1st base side of rubber start, stretch delivery. Solid use of lower 1/2 with some drop and drive involved. Chest gets over front side. Online stride with good finish.
Arm Action: RH. OH slot. Full circle with length. Works well with extension to finish.
FB: T85, 80-85 mph. Will throw harder, arm speed present. Must firm ability to command FB in zone developing ability to work all 4 quadrants. T2190, 1994 average rpm.
CB: 67-71 mph. Solid spin with ability to show avg action at times, release point can be firmed. Missed to glove side. CB/SL looked blended at times. T2227, 2155 average rpm.
SL: 72-75 mph. Shows avg action with depth present at times. Spin present…will be avg pitch in future, will get swing and miss. CB/Sl look blended at times. T2281, 2203 average rpm.
ATH: 6.82 runner in the 60. 1.67 and 3.84 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Moves well, solid acceleration. 28.80 max vertical.

Body: 5-11, 172-pounds. Good build/frame for adding strength. Well proportioned, showing some strength to lower now.
Hit: RHH. Short stride, lands slightly closed. Rotational back foot, fair use of lower 1/2, lacks acceleration. Work on driving hip forward with rotation hitting into front leg or try developing linear movement to back foot. I would recommend linear movement if comfortable, gets into front leg with linear move. Creates lean/tilt over right hip, would like to see even slightly improved posture, this will help with getting on top of baseball instead of missing under a lot of pitches. Hands/barrel in good launch position, take solid path into hitting zone with hands and barrel. Solid swing. 70.3 mph bat speed with 5 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 81.4 mph. 333' max distance. Solid swing. Opportunities for improvement with hit approach. Upside to bat/power combo with changes.
Arm: RH.
ATH: 6.82 runner in the 60. 1.67 and 3.84 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Moves well, solid acceleration. 28.80 max vertical.
