5-foot-10, 155-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder, proportional build, solid athlete. Offensively, open setup, hands separate on load, reverse toe-tap stride, good balance through contact. Line drive type hitter, swing works smoothly through the zone, can get uphill at-times. With added strength will have the ability to consistently drive the ball gap-to-gap.
