Scouting Report

10/21/17 - Home-1st: 4.25, Position Velocity:  OF-87, Exit Velocity: 88
6-foot-1, 170-pound LHH with good tools across the board. Projectable power. Starts in an upright stance and uses a controlled leg kick to get started. Good balance allows him to use all fields. Shows some power, especially to right-center gap. Quick and loose hands. Good outfield actions and arm strength is a plus defensively. Strong accurate throws. Showed good plate approach in game action going 1-for-3 with two walks at Border Battle. One of his outs was a highlight-reel catch in deep right center field that would have easily been a triple. High-level LHH with tools. Ran 6.79 60 at June event and showed slightly better arm strength at 90 mph from the OF.
