Positional Profile: RHP
Body: 5-foot-11, 185-pounds. Average proportional frame.
Delivery: Higher front side delivery, slight drop and drive type, some effort.
Arm Action: RH. Long drawing arm action, shows arm speed out of high 3/4 slot.
FB: T89, 86-88 mph. Showed feel to glove side, occasional run to arm side.
CB: 68-70 mph. 12/6 shape, showed depth, ability to drop for strikes.
CH: 77 mph. Straight change.
5/1/18:The #6 ranked player in Indiana's 2020 class went 6 innings giving up 5 runs on 7 hits walked 2 and collected 8 Ks. Pitches from high arm slot, slow tempo, with tilt to the plate. Arm accelerates at the peak of delivery and ball did look to jump out of his hand. Opened up the game 86-88 T89 in the 1st, then settled into the 84-87 range for the remainder of his outing. Spun a lot of CBs over the course of his outing that showed swing and miss potential. CB was 11/5 shape with depth and late action at 68-73. Command of CB was above average, had the ability to spin it at any point in the count. Also flashed an average CH that was 75-78 that he did show some feel for. Purdue commit.
2017 SCOUT BLOG: 6-foot 185 top-5 player in the Indiana 2020 class. High-motor athlete on the mound with two-way ability. Throws from a high 3/4 slot with a quick arm and a lot of effort. Fastball showed both run and cut action and was 84-87 T88 in the second through sixth innings. Deep action breaking ball at 11/5 with an increase in velocity since the winter sitting 69-74. Thrown with near FB arm speed. Was a swing and miss pitch for RHH throughout the game. Fields the position well and plays with an advanced baseball IQ for his age.
2/19/17: 6-foot, 185 pounds. Two-way prospect and No. 2 ranked player in the 2020 class. Pitches from a long, high-3/4 slot with a quick arm. He shows deception in his delivery with high effort, choppy rhythm, uphill shoulders and good direction. Fastball has cut and in the zone at 84-85, touching 86. He touched 88 last summer. His breaking ball shows depth with 12/6 shape at 63-66. His changeup is 72-74 with occasional sink.Offensively, the RHH hits from a balanced setup with a smooth load back, short stride, partial rotation with the lower half. Showcased above average bat speed from a short/quick path. Aggressive swings during his BP round. Gap-to-Gap type power with fluid rhythm in the swing. Registered a high exit velocity of 84 mph. Defensively, long high ¾ arm action, throws topped out at 86 with life. Plays through the baseball, fluid footwork, at times packs during the exchange. Ran a 7.49 in the laser-timed 60 yard dash.
