5/31/16 5-foot-10, 195-pound strong build. Starts with a balanced setup at the place before taking his hands back during his short stride forward. A strong kid that uses simple mechanics to consistently find the barrel. A line drive hitter at this stage with average to slightly above average batspeed. Would see definite increase in pop and batspeed with a more efficient lower half throughout his swing. Hit a double in game play. Registered an exit velocity of 82 mph and ran a 4.6 down the line. In the outfield he has average hands and feet at this stage. Could get more out of his crow hop. Threw with 74 mph arm strength to home plate. On the mound, he shows some rhythm in his delivery. Comes to a true balance point in his delivery before showing good direction to the plate. Fastball sat 70-74 mph from a high ¾ slot. Curveball has gradual break at 59-61 mph. Changeup sat 61-63 mph.
