On the mound, sat with his fastball at 86-88 mph; has running action and arm side control. Threw a 11/5 curveball (72-73) with plus action. His changeup (80-83) showed arm side control and fading action.

Fastball: 68-72 mph.
Curveball: 54-55 mph with 12/6 movement.
Pitchability: Once delivery becomes repeatable command should not be an issue.
Additional Comments: Very projectable frame that can develop into a prospect.
