Positional Profile: C/OF
Body: 6-1, 195-pounds. Physical frame
Hit: LHH. Strong setup. Uses a short, quick leg lift stride paired with a compact upper body load. Bat comes through the hitting zone on a level plane. Swing get a bit rigid at times, however bat speed & barrel strength are obvious. Has a chance to be very good in the box with continued development.
Power: 89 max exit velocity, averaged 82.0 mph. 320' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-73 mph. OF-81 mph. Longer arm action from the OF, shorter arm action from the crouch - both work from an over-the-top slot.
Defense: 2.04-2.08 pop times. (OF) - Controlled, athletic feet working towards the baseball. Confident hands that play out front with a natural exchange. (C) Quick feet with a clean exchange on throws to 2B.
ATH: 7.08 runner in the 60. 1.70 in the 10 yard split.
