6-foot-1, 165-pound physical frame. Starts in a balanced stance with a controlled load, then uses a toe tap. Bat speed was quick, showed upward swing plane and high finish. Through the round he found some barrels. Up the middle approach. Confident in the box, the left-handed hitter recorded an exit velocity of 88 mph. Above average from the outfield, his best throws to the bases were registered at 79 mph; shows athletic footwork, and a quick exchange. Had an-over-the-top slot with a long arm action. During the event, ran the 60-yard dash in 7.08. Smooth on the mound, showed a high ¾ arm angle and a long arm action with consistent arm speed. Feel type pitcher and uses easy effort. Showed strong balance point. Sat with his fastball at 77-78 mph; showed plus action and command in the zone. Throws a sharp curveball (64-65) that shows swing and miss action and low in the zone command. Has fading action and arm side control on his changeup (73-74). Really creates arm side action on the fastball.
