Scouting Notes: On the mound the righty works with good tempo to a delivery and the ball comes out easy. Arm works through a 3/4 to sidearm slot. Slot allows for a natural tunnel for fastball/breaking ball. Tough matchup for hitters from both sides of the plate. Also will toss an occasional changeup that is more than serviceable. Strike thrower.
Fastball:74-76 mph. Mostly true through the zone.
Fastball Spin Rate:1758- 1941
Curveball:62-63 mph. Slurvish action with developing depth.
Curveball Spin Rate:1657-1715
Changeup: 68-69 mph.
Hit:Right-handed hitter that starts in an upright setup. Simple load followed by an aggressive storke. Stays compact through the zone. All field approach in BP.
Power:Physical swing with respectable bat speed. Flashed gap abilities.
Offensive Projection: Table setter.
Max BP Exit:84 mph
Max BP Distance:240 ft
