Notched a top bat-exit velocity of 93 mph per Trackman Baseball / peak batted ball distance of 324 feet. Defensively: The primary backstop featured a soft glove hand while receiving out of a low crouch, pop times ranged from 2.14-2.31 using short and directional footwork towards the target with smooth transfers, albeit could be a little quicker from transfer to throw. The arm worked through a moderate arm circle and out of a high ¾ slot. Moved well laterally creating soft walls on either side of the plate while blocking. C - 70 mph … The outfielder displayed adequate footwork from his position while approaching the ball off of the left side of his body with a soft glove hand, moderate amount of momentum towards the target with an accurate, high ¾ slot on the release.

Laced some hard line drives back up the middle and some deep fly balls pull side; peak Trackman exit velocity of 94 MPH.
