2/2/2019 Pitching
Body Type: 6-foot 140-pound prospect with a thin build and room to fill out.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: The RHP threw from a low ¾ arm slot with a crossfire action to his delivery that created some good deception.
Fastball: Fastball was 72-76 mph and showed some cutting action and late life.
Breaking Ball: 66-67 mph slider showed true slider spin and action. Came out on fastball plane and showed good bite.
Changeup: Threw a 70 mph changeup that had some arm side life but minimal depth.
Pitchability: Pretty good feel for his three pitch mix. Fastball and slider presently are more advanced than the changeup.
Role: Presently shows the ability to be a guy who starts at the high school level with a quality breaking ball and a changeup to keep people honest. At the next level would profile more as a bullpen type with a slider dominant approach.

Body Type: 6-foot 140-pound prospect with a thin build and room to fill out.

Hit: Average bat to ball ability.
Power: 74 mph exit velocity.
Offensive Projection: Presently profiles as line drive type hitter without much ability to drive the ball into the gaps.
Run: 7.78 60 yard dash.
Field: In the outfield he attacks and plays through the ball well. Showed good footwork but could quicken up his release.
Defensive Projection: Currently profiles as a corner OF guy, probably more of a LF type presently.
