5-foot-11, 180-pound right-handed pitcher and outfielder. Defensively, showed the ability to track the ball down in the outfield and get off the ball. The throws from the outfield are online and have carry to them, sat at 80 mph from right-field to third base. Ran a 4.21 down the line as the athleticsm of this guy is excellent. Offensively, tee exit velocity of 89 mph. Sets up with feet wide, picks up and puts down the lead foot as the ball approaches. The hands are fast, the direction of the barrel is long to the ball. On the mound, the fastball touched 84 mph, true to the plate. The breaking pitch is legit, 74 mph with 12/6 action to it. The changeup is progressing fine, as it sat at 75 mph. The delivery has effort to it, comes at you out of a high ¾ slot. The tracking of the front shoulder comes off the plate prior to foot strike. The spin pitch makes him formidable. 1.06 to the plate out of the stretch.
Tee Exit Velocity- 89 mph
OF Velocity- 80 mph

5-foot-11, 180-pound, strong, thick, physical athletic frame. A well proportioned athlete, the back is wide, lower half has strength to it. Performed well on both sides of the field. Off the mound, hands start low and stay low throughout the delivery. The leg raise is high, with some coil to it at its peak, has more of drop and drive approach, leans back and gets tilt to the shoulders. The arm action is longer on the back side, works out of a higher ¾ to over the top, pitches downhill, located all three pitches for strikes. The fastball was clocked at 80-83 mph, it's heavy and located to both sides. The curveball is his best pitch, great top to bottom break, clocked at 71-74 mph, it's a big time pitch. The changeup is usable, clocked at 75-77 mph, fade and action to the armside. Offensively, hits from the right side, feet are even and slightly wider than shoulder width. The hands are set just below shoulder height, wrists are strong and cocked, bat has some tilt to it. The swing is level to up, approach is more line drive from gap to gap, keeps the barrel in the zone a long time. Collected a single in ball game and took a solid batting practice, tee exit velocity was clocked at 91 mph. Defensively, arm was clocked at 79 mph, uses more of a shuffle for the transfer. The throws are downhill, gives the fielder something to handle. The routes and angles were correct, is aggressive to and through the baseball. Big time follow for me off the mound, will great a bullpen arm with the life on fastball and the ability to spin the baseball.
Home-First: 4.41
Exit Velocity: 91 MPH

5-foot-11, 178-pound, average athletic frame, shoulders are sloped, has plenty of room for future development. A right-handed hitter, the stroke is short and quick. The stance is slightly open, feet closer are together with a taller stance. The hands are loose, they have some movement and are shoulder height. The swing is level across the chest and finishes with two hands, keeps his hands inside the baseball well. The tee exit velocity was 80 mph, with life and whip out front to the finish. In game swings were good, made solid contact in all at bats and collected a single. Times down the line were 4.35, runs well with a good athletic kick. Defensively, plays the outfield, the feet and prep steps are good. The arm has strength to it, was clocked at 71 mph. Is aggressive in attacking the baseball. Pitched the day before, so there is more in the arm. I saw him in the HS season pitch, has some pitchability to him.
