5-foot-8, 160-pound, twitchy athlete, is explosive, strength throughout, with plus hand strength. A right-handed hitter, who put together another solid workout. The legs are an above average tool, ran an easy 6.76, can really move, gets out of the blocks quick. At the plate a balanced setup, higher hand set. The lower half is under control, small lift into a controlled stride. The swing is short to contact, hands inside the baseball, small rotational on finish, could stay through it a tick longer. The approach is line drives to gaps, with an exit velocity of 93 mph. Defensively, can track it in outfield, legs can out run the baseball. The arm has strength, clocked at 80 mph. Projects for me as a centerfielder, leadoff type. Should incorporate the small ball game, will only add another weapon to his arsenal. Needs to be seen.

Exit Velocity: 93 mph

Sixty-Yard Dash: 6.76

5-foot-7, 157-pound, strong, super athletic frame. Continues to add mass and strength. A right-handed hitting outfield, showed very well once again, the skill set is progressing nicely. At the plate strong setup, starting slightly open, higher hand set relaxed and loose. For timing uses a controlled leg raise, gains ground is under control with it, a firm front leg, could lock down front foot a bit more. There is a ton more in there as the back half has more juice to it. The swing is super short, level path, a pull approach, with serious bat speed. The exit velocity is advanced, clocked at 91 mph. A plus runner ran a quick 6.76 sixty-yard dash, can really move. Defensively, threw 79 mph from the outfield. The approach is under control, arm action is short, working from a higher slot. Can run down the baseball in the outfield. Projecting for me to play more of a corner spot. High follow.

Defensively, approach is under control, fielding out front, arm works from a higher slot, all throws down hill and on target.  The arm was clocked at 76 mph, working with minimal effort.
