3/23/19

Uncommitted 2019 that really swings it, fields his position, and can run some for his size at 6'3'', 215 lbs. Present power at the plate hitting from a balanced, open stance at the plate. Uses a leg kick to load and creates nice hand separation. Stays behind the ball well and showed good balance throughout his swing. Gets good extension and strong lower half. Beat out a routine ground ball to third base, drove a sac-fly oppo to right-center field, and ripped a line drive single to left field. Understands counts and really like his approach.
