5-foot-8, 145-pound prospect. A mechanically sound southpaw that showed a three-pitch mix, while working through a near over the top slot. Delivery is repeatable and requires little effort. Arm action is clean. Fastball was mostly straight through the zone at 68-72 mph, topping at 73 mph. Expect velocity to increase with maturity. Displayed solid feel for his secondary stuff. His changeup was the better of his two offerings. He was able to maintain fastball arm speed and put run and sink on the pitch at 64-65 mph. His breaking ball showed big break and a 1/7 shape at 54-59 mph. At the plate he showed well above average bat speed through the zone. Mechanically efficient and found the barrel often. Consistently produced backspin on his line drives. Solid hitter. A very mechanically sound outfielder. Plays with feel and confidence. Remains athletic as he stays low through the baseball. Throws were consistently on target with average to above average arm strength.
