Scouting Report

10/7/17 Southern Maryland Open

Long and lanky frame with room to add on at 6-foot-1, 140-pounds. 7.75 60-yard dash. Hits from a square set up with good base. Leg Lift load with hands moving down to hitting position. Shorter level swing path with average bat speed, keeping hands inside the ball. 76 exit velo. Sound hands from the outfield with a clean exchange. Average feet, like to see on balls of feet more. Longer loose arm action throwing from a high three quarter slot. Throws have some carry and accuracy on them with a 78 mph velo-----Interesting prospect on the mound. Shorter side step delivery moving sides of the rubber. Average leg kick into a slight corkscrew lift. Gets some lower half involvement from backside drive and direction. Inconsistent with his lower half, got better as the bullpen progressed. Has a shorter, quick arm throwing from an almost over the top slot. Fastball is straight up to 78 mph. Breaking ball has shorter, 11/5 action on the pitch and when throws with intent had nice later action and potential at 67 mph. Change up showed fade and dive to the pitch at 74 mph. Interesting foundation on the mound for the prospect. as he better repeats his delivery throughout and fills out his frame, could be one to watch.
