6-foot, 170-pound prospect with athletic frame. On the mound the righty uses an uptempo delivery that requires some effort. Creates excellent energy with his lower half and lands in line at foot strike. Arm works well through a high-¾ slot. Showed off a three-pitch mix with his fastball sitting 77-79 mph. Spins an 11/5 shaped breaking ball that has enough movement to miss barrels at 63-65 mph. Also showed feel for a changeup near fastball arm speed at 67-70 mph.  Shows some athleticism in his feet. At times, creates angles and keeps feet moving. But, also has tendency to get flat footed. Will be aided by more consistency. Transfer has some length to it. Uses short arm action. Top velocity of 77 mph across the infield. Offensively, he stays fluid throughout his loading sequence where he incorporates a leg kick and barrel tip. Bat has some quickness to it, taking an uphill path to the baseball. Consistently produced line drives in batting practice and was at his best when he worked to the middle of the field.
