Ran a 5.0 from home to first.A third baseman that does a nice job of creating angles with his footwork on plays in his funnel. Moves well laterally. More confident to his forehand. Threw across the diamond with 68 mph arm strength. At the plate he showed rhythm to his loading sequence. Gets things started through a leg kick and keeps his hands relatively simple.Top exit velocity was 65 mph. Takes a level path to the ball and found the barrel often in batting practice. Worked well to middle/opposite side of the field. On the mound the right-hander has smooth tempo to his lower effort delivery. Arm action is clean with some looseness to it. Arm speed is still developing. Fastball sat 66-67 mph, topping at 69 with slight run at times. Breaking ball had some tightness to it, varying from a 10/4 to 11/5 shape. Also flashed solid feel for his knuckle ball that danced through the zone at 51-54 mph.
