6-foot-5, 180 pounds with a long lanky frame.  On the mound, the southpaw throws through a 3/4 arm slot.  Good tempo.  Will improve velocity as he incorporates lower half.  He offers a 77-80 mph fastball that topped out at 82 mph at times.  He featured two off-speed pitches.  A 64-65 mph curveball that shows 1/7 movement.  He also mixed in a 73-74 mph changeup.
