Rising sophomore at 5-foot-11, 145 pounds. Smooth hands at SS, feet will come with growth. Creates some bat speed with naturally quick hands and works with a line drive approach. Slight cast of the hands can be fixed and everything will become more connected. Adding strength will help the all around game, as the feel and actions are there.
