Really clean actions and the fastball showed nice vertical break. Very nice arm that showed the ability to throw three pitches for a strike. The fastball was up to 82 mph with mid to upper 1900’s spin rates. The breaking ball shows very tight spin and late depth at 69-71 mph. The change up was considered a “plus” pitch for him showing major deception and arm side fade at 68-70 mph.  The feet are fairly even in the stance at the plate and he shows a compact middle of the field approach with a level swing plane and violence in the barrel. Shows nice extension through contact. Has some quick twitch actions in the field with the glove and flexibility in the hips. A versatile ‘20 grad with very solid skills.

Showed a nice, easy delivery and repeatable mechanics each pitch. Throwing from a high ¾ arm slot, he showed a FB that was up to 84 mph with some cut and the pitch generated weak contact. He showed the ability to command this pitch to his glove side. The breaking ball showed nice downward tilt at 65-66 mph and he got several swing and misses on the pitch. Showed a slightly open stance at the plate and a small leg kick approach. The swing was well synced and there is some juice off the barrel. Plus bat speed and showed the ability to handle all pitches and use the whole field. Love the extension and finish in the swing. Arm strength across the IF is nice (83 mph) and the feet and glove work well together. Showed nice lateral range and made some difficult plays look easy. Was very fluid on the backhand play. Could be a nice late addition to a ‘20 class.
