Run: 4.30 runner H-1B.
6-foot-2, 185-pound athletic frame. In the 60-yard dash, he clocked a time of 8.09. Begins in an open stance with a controlled load, then uses a small leg kick to initiate his swing. Has above average bat speed and has good extension on his finish. He found multiple barrels in his rounds. Up the middle approach. the right-handed hitter's 93 mph exit velocity showed his ability to drive the ball with power. In the infield, his best throw was registered at 76 mph; had developing footwork and raw hands. Has an-over-the-top slot. On the mound, has a high ¾ angle. Drop-and-drive type pitcher and uses easy effort. Shows a clean finish. Threw his fastball 78-79 mph with a max of 80 mph; shows low in the zone control with heavy movement. Has a 12/6 curveball (66-67) that showed very consistent control and swing and miss action.
A young player that held his own at the event. Showed a very simple approach at the plate from an even stance and a middle of the field approach. The hands worked well and a bad path was level. Did a nice job staying on the ball through the hitting zone. Impressive at 3B with the feet in the glove. He knew when to take a drop step and showed some lateral range. Everything worked well together in the field.
