Kidd stands out physically with a strong, 6-foot-2, 220-pound frame and big right-handed power. He creates explosive bat speed from a strong base and tall back elbow, producing a 96 mph max exit velocity and 350-foot peak distance. The barrel works clean on a short, efficient path, and there’s clear juice in the profile. Defensively, he shows above-average arm strength with throws up to 80 mph and pop times ranging 2.00–2.15. The transfer is average, but the arm carries throws. A physical presence behind the plate, he receives with strong hands and wrists, though mobility in the crouch is limited.
