1/28/18 Wiry 5-foot-9, 155-pound frame with twitchy athleticism throughout build.

Quick hands, short path into high finish and bat speed that produced an exit velocity of 83 mph. Defender displayed quickish footwork, soft hands, and does a nice job of playing out in front. Clean exchange to the midline, into high-3/4 arm stroke that produced a positional velocity of 79 mph.
