Physical: High-waisted, athletic 6-foot-1, 165lb frame. 7.29 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Taller, slightly closed off stance, as the hands operated quietly at the shoulder to begin. Utilized a quick leg-lift stride to initiate the swing through a whippy, flat path towards a balanced finish. Produced some separation with sink into the lower-half and an aggressive turn for a T95 mph exit velocity. Easy power all over the field, working up to a 374 foot peak distance on a pull-side home-run.
Defensively: The outfielder demonstrated feel for his body in space, creating advanced tempo over the front-side at the fielding window. Funneled softly off the left side and delivered a loud 90 mph arm-strength from H ¾ slot.
Pitching: RHP. Starts off the far left corner of the rubber; methodical, momentum-gaining pace down the slope with intent to drive off the backside. Twitchy thrower who held 83-86 mph (2209) for strikes to both sides of the plate. Mixed a sharp, two-plane low-70’s breaker above 2600 rpms and added a 73-75 mph CH with repeated arm-side fade.
