6-foot-2, 210-pound strong frame. At the plate he starts in a wide, slightly open setup before using a short stride to get back to even. Hands move slightly back before taking a downhill path to the ball. Line drive type type guy that consistently squared balls up in batting practice. Above average batspeed at this stage. Top exit velocity was 81 mph and ran a 5.08 from home to first. Has adequate lateral quickness at first base. Has feel for the position and created efficient angles on his double play balls. Threw across the infield with 75 mph arm strength. On the mound he worked through a high ¾ slot with above average armspeed. His fastball sat 78-79 mph and was complimented by a sharp breaking ball at 65-68 mph.

6-foot, 180-pound projectable frame. At first base he is a good target with soft hands and decent foot work around the bag for his age. From a loose, high-3/4 slot he showed 74 mph arm strength across the diamond. Right-handed hitter that starts open and gets to even. Good balance and starts his hands away from his body. Flat swing to uphill finish and 83 mph exit velocity with 5.6 speed home to first. On the mound the right hander has a slow tempo delivery that speeds up at the end and is slightly open at foot strike. Does a good job staying over his front side. Throws from a high-3/4 slot with fastball sitting 74-75 mph. Breaking ball spins at 62-63 mph with 11/5 break.
