Offensively, he stands tall, trusts his hands and shows an advanced, gap-to-gap approach. The swing is level and compact, with present bat speed and stays in the zone. Had an RBI single and was equally impressive on the base path where he had three stolen bases. Defensively, he has advanced defensive actions. He has advanced feel with a quick first step and above average hands with a quick transfer. The athleticism and tools translated to an outstanding play, diving up the middle at short in the game. Has the tools to stick at short and present hit tool. Overall, he is an athlete and should not be committed for much longer.
