Franco has a broad shouldered, athletic build at 6-foot-2 205-pounds. Was one of the most impressive athletes at the event both in physicality and athleticism. Ran the 60 yard dash in 6.58 seconds and recorded an exit velocity of 94 with a wood bat. At the plate, Franco starts with a compact approach, hands above back shoulder and a tall, narrow stance. As pitch comes in, uses a leg kick and stride to start swing. Hands load back slightly. Violent hips and hands through the zone produces impressive gap-to-gap power on finish. Defensively, shows some feel for corner outfield position at the next level. Throws topped at 77 MPH from the outfield from high-3/4 slot with some arm side run. On the mound, fastball topped at 76 MPH and sat mostly 75-76 from a high-3/4 slot. Long, stiffish arm action. Curveball showed small 11/5 action at 60-62.
