6/7/16
5-foot-11, 185-pound athletic frame.  A very functionally athletic kid. Has the look of a middle of the order bat at the next level from the left side. Is simple yet efficient mechanically incorporating his lower half through a toe turn load. Hands remain fluid during his bat tip before getting through the zone on an excellent path with above average strength and batspeed. Took a very impressive round of batting practice showing power potential to his pull side. Was able to keep his fluidity in game play and made hard contact on multiple occasions. Very good hitter. Registered an exit velocity of 91 mph and ran a 7.27 60-yard dash. With his foot speed he profiles as a corner outfielder. His best tool is his arm as he threw with 88 mph arm strength to home plate. Throws show good carry. Left handed pitching prospect that shows choppy rhythm in his delivery. Slow leg kick into a balance point, before speeding up down the mound. Long back arm action into a high ¾ slot with quick arm speed. Fastball sat 80-83 mph. Curveball sat 71-75 mph. Changeup sat 70-73 mph.

5-foot-10, 185-pound athletic build. Left-handed hitter that stands tall. Little stride that steps closed with an uphill swing. Registered top exit velocity of and impressive 89 mph for his age. Ran 7.5-60. From the outfield he takes good aggressive routes with a good run thru and crow hop. From over the top arm action he showed an impressive 87 mph arm strength with good carry. On the mound the southpaw has a compact delivery with good tempo. Has good direction at foot strike and from over top his fastball sits 80-83 mph with down angle and arm side run. Spins a 12/6 breaking ball with depth at 69 mph and showcased a solid changeup with fade to it at 70-73 mph.

From the outfield he takes aggressive routes with good crow hop. Throws from a high-3/4 slot with 78 mph arm strength. On the mound he has a slow tempo delivery with an easy lift that he is able to repeat. Throws from a high-3/4 slot that is almost over top with his fastball sitting 81-83 mph with arm side run.
