1/27/19 Pitching Body Type: 5-foot-10, 170-pound frame that has room to add strength. Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Slower paced delivery that he can repeat. Efficient lower half/gets down the mound well. Long back, clean arm action with more strength to come. Fastball: 76-78 mph. Mostly true through the zone. Expect more velo. Curveball: 65-68 mph. Near 12/6 shape with some sharpness to it. Should add depth as velo increases. Changeup: 67-71 mph. Solid offering with changeup of pace velo wise. Not a ton of movement but good arm speed/sell to it. Pitchability: Strike thrower for the most part.

Hit: Somewhat raw but physical kid with a mostly level path through the zone. Stays inside the baseball well, working inside a middle-away approach. Power: 89 mph exit velocity. Both strength and bat speed play. Line drive guy with present gap abilities. Offensive Projection: Middle of Lineup Potential. Run: 4.63 H-1st.

7/18/17 A 5-foot-9, 146-pound prospect. The right-handed hitter positions himself in an athletic setup prior to his load. Hands move slightly back during his knee pinch load. Launches with some tilt. Bat has some loft to it with average to above average bat speed. Showed feel for the barrel and the ability to produce line drives. Swing plays best to the middle/opposite field. In the outfield he uses aggressive footwork approaching the baseball. Plays through the ball with ease and fluidity. Looks comfortable and confident in the position. Arm action fits the spot. Ball gets out of his hand well showing above average arm strength and carry. On the bump, the right-handed pitching prospect works through the stretch. The prospect works with a high leg lift, while closing his upper body to the batter. Develops power through back hip load to a downhill delivery. Arm works well with a slight hitch in his high ¾ delivery. Lower half is efficient and creates energy. Fastball stays straight and is located well. Expect fastball velocities to increases as he grows into his body. Curveball shows developing potential and complements his fastball with a 12/6 break and a slight drop in arm slot. Expect the prospect to develop on the bump as his continues to grow. FB: 72-76 CB: 55-56 Home to First: 4.52 OF Velo: 74 Exit Velo: 79

Starts with a high lift and really loads into his backside. Stays closed while leading with the hips during his stride. Open at landing, and finish has some recoil. Fastball was straight at 69-71 mph. Struggle to command his 12/6 curveball which sat 55-60 mph. Showed some feel with a changeup that sat 60-64 mph with sink and good arm speed.
