A 5-foot-11, 185-pound prospect. Offensively, he is a right-handed bat that starts in a taller setup. Moves hands slightly back during his controlled stride. Path is level to slightly downhill. Generates average to slightly above average bat speed. Strength is top tool at the plate. Showed gap pop and use the whole field when he found the barrel. Middle of the lineup look to him. In the infield he uses quick, direct footwork inside his funnel. Lateral mobility is fringy for the position. Showed above average glove skills and glove stays on the move. Comes and gets it well on slow rollers. On the mound the right-hander has an uptempo delivery that requires some effort. Goes with a high leg lift, prior to his stride. Lands in line to home plate before finishing towards the first base line. Arm is clean with some looseness to it. Arm speed is average to above average. Fastball was consistently was consistently in the zone with regular movement. The pitch showed run, cut, and sink depending on where he located the offering. His go to secondary offering was his 11/5 shaped breaking ball. Used the pitch as a freeze offering, occasionally using it as a put away pitch. The fastball itself has enough movement to be considered multiple different pitches.
