A two-way guy, hits from the right side, the stance is balanced and even, hands are set shoulder height. The stride gets heavy and the body/head tend to go up and down, needs to quiet everything down a little. Shows good pop, the tee exit velocity was 82. In the field, hands and feet work well, fields the ball out front with a quick transfer, keeps feet moving well to target. The arm was 77 across the diamond, easy carry to it. Footwork could get sharper around the bag, probably projects more of a third baseman. Off the mound, comes at you out of a ¾ slot. The motion is easy effort and repeatable. The arm is clean, fastball sat at 79-80 entire time. The breaking ball was 68-71, has some slurve action to it. The feel for changeup was good, proper spin and fade. The size is average, needs to get stronger but there's stuff to work with.
