5 foot 9 medium build, has adding some mass since summer 2018. Physical maturity moving forward will dictate future position. Uber simplistic swing with very little hand load and basic stride timing mechanism. Worked to stay behind the ball up the middle and to the opposite field. Consistently found the barrel. Narrow crouch behind the plate and quick footwork without much lower body used in his throws to second. Also worked out as a second baseman, stop and start mechanics and quick release.
