6-foot-1, 205-pound- thick, large, strong athletic frame. The hands and wrists have strength to them. A right-handed hitter, who shows to have above average power and strength to his swing. The stance is wide and open, hands are loose right at shoulder height. The hands stay back during stride, stride foot could get back to even, pulls off to the pull side at times. The swing is short and quick to the ball, finishes with two hands at shoulder height. The approach is more middle to pull, shows to have above average power to pull side. Defensively, worked out at first base, feet are quick, work well for being a big kid, could step in front, opposed to behind. Works from the ground up, fields ball out front, double play starts were done correctly. The arm action is short and clean on the backside, clocked at 72 mph across the diamond. Footwork around the back was done properly when receiving throws. Off the mound, this right-hander has a slow deliberate delivery, repeats his motion. The hands start and stay at the chest, the leg raise in under control and has coil to it at its peak. The direction is slightly across his body. The arm action is clean, ball comes out of a ¾ too high-¾ slot. The fastball was clocked at 74- 75 mph, breaking ball was clocked at 60-61 mph, had some sweeping break to it. The changeup was at 64 mph, was down in the zone. Times to the were quick at 1.09, slide step. The arm worked quicker out of the set position, body was moving quicker, arm speed improved. Interesting kid, has strength in his swing.
