5-foot-10, 155-pound prospect. A switch hitter at the plate. From the right side he creates solid energy with his lower half through an aggressive stride. Stays fluid throughout loading sequence. Barrel has solid whip through the zone with above average batspeed. Consistently produced hard contact in batting practice. Gap to gap pop at this stage. From the left side he starts in a taller setup and uses a more simple approach mechanically. Hand stays simple during his double tap load and stride. More of a contact guy from the left side. Looks to be more advanced from the right side at this stage. Behind the plate he starts in a low crouch, showing flexibility in his hip. Creates solid direction with his feet, while gaining ground. Actions are mechanically sound but will need to get quicker as he matures. On the mound, the right handed pitcher displays short arm action while throwing through a high ¾ slot. Fastball consistently sits between 74-77 mph. Featuring gradual 10/4 break, his curveball ranges between 65-66 mph. Also mixes in a 69-70 mph changeup with near fastball arm speed.

60 Yard Dash: 7.59
Pop Time: 2.16-2.24
C Velocity: 65
Exit Velo: R 82, L 80

5-foot-8, 145-pound thin build. From the right side he does a good job of creating forward energy through a double-tap load and an aggressive stride. Similar approach from the left side but tends to keep weight on his back leg throughout his swing. Keeps his hands simple to get his barrel in the zone early and keep his swing level through the zone. Exit velocity was 69 mph from the right and 66 mph from the left. Ran a 4.44 from home to first. From behind the plate he shows good athleticism. Throws from a high ¾ slot with 68 mph arm strength. Pop times ranging 2.20-2.31. On the mound he showed some quickness in his arm from a high ¾ slot with good direction towards home plate. Only showcased his fastball which was 69-73 mph.
