1.22.17 - 6-foot, 170-pound, athletically built, left-handed hitting infielder with plenty of room for continued physical development. Ran a 7.09 laser-timed 60. Offensively, quiet hands, simple swing with some looseness throughout. Fluid rhythm, short path, bat stays level through the zone and controls the barrel. Balanced setup, smooth load, leg-kick timing trigger and maintains good balance throughout. Registered a 75 mph exit velocity. Defensively, soft, receptive hands on the infield and maintains body control on the move. Arm works short from high ¾ and throws clocked at 75 mph.

6.1.16 - See earlier report below from 5/25/16 vs. Manteno. Again showed a knack for the barrel, loose hands on a short path, stays inside and sprays the ball to all field. Live wiry frame could project as a doubles guy, high contact rate. Likely to stay at second base, easy long strided runner, possible left field candidate as well. Went 3-for-3 with a double.

5.25.16 - Wiry live frame, 6-foot-1, 175-pound left-handed hitting middle infielder. Defensively showed softer hands, ability to cushion the baseball. Lacked arm strength, short over the top arm action, likely to stick at second base. Offensively showed loose quick hands, ability to stay inside the baseball, short stroke. Above average runner, got a hustle double on a clean hit to center field.
