Began in a balanced stance with a high controlled load, then used a leg kick. Bat speed was average, and had a flat swing plane.

Power: Fast bat with serviceable strength that projects for more as he fills out athletic frame.
Offensive Projection: Top of lineup.
Max BP Exit Velocity: 83mph.
Max BP Distance: 278ft.
Field: Smoother actions in the infield. Plays with a controlled tempo. Ball skills appear to be serviceable.
