5-foot-9, 170-pound, average athletic frame. The shoulders are rounded, a well proportioned athlete. A two way player, worked out as a catcher and pitcher. At the plate, hits from the right side, feet are even, hands are relaxed and loose at the shoulders, bat starting in more of a flat position. For timing uses a simple pick up and put down. The swing is flat through the zone, approach in more line drive to the pull side. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 77 mph and ran a 8.22 sixty-yard dash. Defensively, had a pop time of 2.09-2.25 and the arm was clocked at 73 mph from the chute. The arm works form a higher slot, feet look to be smooth and quick, gaining ground in the transfer. The front side glove comes off track, could stay on it longer. The hands could soften on the catch. Off the mound, this righthender, has a simple repeatable delivery. The hands start and stay at the chest, leg raise is athletic, direction is inline to the plate, with good extension on release of the baseball. The arm action has average length to it, working out of a natural ¾ slot. The fastball was clocked at 72-74 mph, was thrown for strikes. The breaking ball was clocked at 61-63 mph, with proper spin to it. The changeup was thrown for strikes, clocked at 64-65 mph. Pounded the zone with all three pitches.
