Scouting Report
1.28.18 - Physically advanced 6-foot-3, 180-pound frame. Left-handed hitter starts from a square stance and initiates his swing with a lift-and-replace stride. Showcased above average balance and a fluid, easy swing that resulted in consistent barrels. The potential for future power is obvious as his young frame continues to fill out and there is more intent in his lower half. Ran a 7.42 60-yard dash and showed capable actions around the bag at first base with 78 mph arm strength across the diamond. The lefty sat 76-78 from a high 3/4 arm slot with some cut to his 4-seam fastball. The 2-seamer sat 75-77 with arm side run. Changeup is thrown with good sell at 68-70. Curveball rolls out of the hand with 2/8 shape at 65-67. Mechanics are balanced, easy and repeatable. Significant velocity gains are likely moving forward.
