10/27/19: Fall vs Santa Clara:Started at the hot corner and hit in the three-hole showing the physical frame and bat speed to be a key offensive piece going into Spring. Large, wide and full frame moving with agile feet and showing current strength throughout the frame. Even hands at the plate with high back elbow and stands slightly opened; aggressive swings showing present bat speed and ability to lift to the pullside from the rhythm in his hands. Showed his strength in second AB with pitch on inner half shooting it into RCF for easy 1B; some more raw strength in the frame flashing some pop during batting practice. Played tight during the game which allowed his quick feet to make some plays on angles, but also had some balls become hits because of the limited time to react and grab them. Arm shows the strength to stick at 3rd with some effort and accurate throws to both bags; should stick at position possibly being able to fit in a corner OF spot as well. (Ozella)
