A right-handed hitter that starts in a balanced setup. Simple, fluid load that creates energy and balanced. Nice, level path with a ton of barrel feel in there. Wiry strong with average bat speed that projects for more. Ball came off well. Gap guy now with much more to come as he fills out athletic frame. In the infield he does a nice job of creating angles with his feet to play through the baseball efficiently. Plays fast too and through. Ball skills are above average for class. Urgent transfer followed by accuracy across the diamond. Solid defender. Two-way prospect. On the bump the righty works exclusively from the stretch. Drop and drive type guy that creates good energy/direction down the mound. Arm is clean with above average arm speed through a high-¾ slot. Tosses an easy 79-82 mph fastball that stays mostly true through the zone. Changeup has some fade to it, maintaining fastball arm speed at 74-75 mph. Also spins a tight breaking ball on an 11/5 plane at 66-68 mph. The pitch was very sharp at times acting as his put away offering.
