The long limb, projectable frame right-handed pitcher work from a high slot with a medium arm circle and fairly quick arm stroke. Slow-tempo, with effort and stiffness in delivery. Good balance, directional path with an athletic finish. Fastball was around the zone at 77-79 mph, touching 80 mph also showing a breaking showing 11/5-shape with developing action at 63-64 mph.

Right-handed pitcher throwing from high- ¾ release, solid balance and regular effort in delivery. Fluid rhythm with level shoulders, in-line direction while finishing athletically. Fastball sat 83-85 mph with slight arm side run and displayed the ability to command it around the zone, getting several swing and misses. Also flashed a 73-75 mph slider during warm-ups.
