Scouting Report
Long, physical 6-foot-1, 190-pound frame. Strong frame with room to add strength, has an element of physicality to his game. Right-handed hitter, stands tall in setup, uses a rhythmic toe tap with a gliding front foot to generate energy, smooth, controlled load, shifts weight to backside, and stays balanced. Physical, slightly rotational swing, strength is to pullside, swings with intent, on-plane path, line-drive approach with enough strength to run balls into the gaps, bat speed and strong at contact, posted an exit velocity of 88 mph. Profiles more as a corner infielder. Solid actions, average hands, efficient footwork around the bag, moves well side to side, creates good throwing angles. Long arm action into high-3/4 release, showed arm strength with carry on throws across, posted a positional velocity of 86 mph. Also worked out at catcher, showed strong hands with clean, quick transfers, and solid footwork. Longer arm stroke into high-3/4 release, accurate throws with carry down to 2nd, posted a 2.04-second pop time and a positional velocity of 79 mph. Solid athlete with positional versatility, posted a 7.04-second laser-timed 60-yard dash.
