5-foot-7, 140-pound lean frame. In the box, the right-handed hitter recorded an exit velocity of 76 mph. Began in an open stance with a wrapping load, then used a long stride before his swing. Showed a flat swing plane and level finish. Barreled up some balls throughout the round. While catching, pop time was 2.02-2.10, best recorded velocity during throw downs was clocked at 67 mph; had soft hands and a clean exchange. A lot of flexibility with an athletic setup. Had a high ¾ slot and a compact arm action.
