Offensively: RHH. Open setup, with feet shoulder width apart; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Lifts hands with an exaggerated leg kick for timing. Drifts into contact while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a slight lift to the ball with a two handed finish. More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 85 MPH via Trackman. Showed above average hand speed and on-plane efficiency. Clean and effortless swing with some tilt.
Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; uses prep step while covering ground laterally. Hands are soft with a clean transfer. Moderate arm circle from a standard 3/4 arm slot. INF - 81 MPH. Quick and active feet at short with above average arm strength. Made a nice knock down stop to the backhand side.
