6-foot-1, 200-pound right-handed hitting catcher and first baseman. The skill set behind the dish is solid, throwing 78 mph down to second base with a pop time of 2.16. The feet and transfer can continue to improve as he matures in age. The bat has an exit velocity of 95 mph. The setup is wide in base and the hands are set comfortably to begin. The hands work loosely and quick. The path is simple and clean through the baseball. The frame projects and with the bat, he is a good prospect.
