Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF Shows intriguing 2-way potential as solid RHH OF who has upside with easy actions to his position profile while adding high potential RHP with a starters profile.
Body: 5-11, 172-pounds. Athletic present frame with some strength and room to continue adding.
Delivery: Athletic operation. Body control and moves well down the mound. Hands set at the belly button and have minimal movement syncing with the front leg. Works down the mound with front leg and has good stride length while staying taller on his backside. Uses hips effectively and rotates around the front leg which shows feel for blocking consistently.
Arm Action: RH. Medium length arm patht that goes to hip height before working behind his body. Shows present arm speed with looseness and quickness throwing from a 3/4 slot with minimal recoil after release.
FB: T86, 84-85 mph. Solid present FB which has both ride and run at present in the shape with solid spin rates. Could benefit from developing either more run or more ride. T2251, 2081 average rpm.
CB: 73-75 mph. Spins it well with 2 plane break diving down vertially with depth and to the glove side with bite. Gets whiff on pitch. T2540, 2469 average rpm.
CH: 75-75 mph. Fades to the arm side with tumble and flashes potential. T1444, 1444 average rpm.
ATH: 7.30 runner in the 60. Drives low into a taller posture with short quick strides and body control.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF Shows intriguing 2-way potential as solid RHH OF who has upside with easy actions to his position profile while adding high potential RHP with a starters profile.
Body: 5-11, 172-pounds. Athletic present frame with some strength and room to continue adding.
Hit: RHH. Wide base with crouch to his knees and hinge at his hips. Low back elbow with hands set around shoulder height closer to his head. Bat waggle with his hands.

Athletic operation in the turn with quickness to his hips while staying taller in legs and driving his rear hip through contact. Path is loose and quick with leverage through the zone. 69 mph bat speed with 7 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 88.4 mph. 280' max distance. Flatter swing plane stayed to mainly GBs and LDs with strong present top end EV and avg EVs that show his impact potential. Will play as doubles from line to line, but has the potential for pull side HR impact.
Arm: RH. OF-82 mph. Medium length arm path out of glove with smooth path and quickness that shows accuracy that will profile at all 3 OF spots potentially.
Defense: Athletic mover who has body control with confidence in his actions that shows clean routes, angles, and actions to the ball. CF potential with ability to handle either corner.
ATH: 7.30 runner in the 60. Drives low into a taller posture with short quick strides and body control.
