1/21/18 Currently ranked No. 156 in Louisiana’s 2018 class. Long limb, projectable 6-foot-2, 195-pound frame. Right-handed pitcher that works from a medium arm action into high-3/4 release with solid balance, and regular effort in delivery. Creates deception to his delivery by using a strong front side that hides the release point well, while falling off to the first base side of the rubber. Fastball sat 81-83 mph, with angle and command down in the zone. Breaking ball showed early, gradual 11/5-shape at 68-69 mph with depth. Change showed slight fading action thrown with near fastball arm speed at 68-69 mph. Right-handed hitter that starts from tall, open setup working closed with quick toe tap rhythm. Big, aggressive swing with strength and length in path into uphill finish and bat speed that produced an exit velocity of 87 mph. Defensively displayed smooth footwork, fielding the ball out front, creating momentum towards target. Short high-3/4 release with stiffness in arm stroke that produced a positional velocity of 80 mph. Also ran a 7.51 60-yard dash.
