Costa is 6-0 with an athletic 190 pound frame that has some strength present in the lower half and projection left to it. He hits from the right side from an open balanced athletic stance, short stride on line, smooth load back. Hips rotate completely with some violence and he maintains good lower half balance. Hands stay inside, quick to the ball, uphill swing path with some strength at contact and some extension through the ball, showed a good approach working gap to gap, shows extra base power to all fields and swing really works gap to gap, exit velocity was 93. In the infield, rounds the ball and fields with a wider base and above average hands, works through the ball with a clean exchange, throws from a low three-quarters arm slot, short arm action, position velocity was 76. Ran a 7.49 60 yard dash.
