Physical: 5-6, 108 pounds; Wiry, lean build. 8.57 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet shoulder width apart; has a pre-pitch bat waggle. Short take back with the hands with a slight leg-kick for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a moderate swing path with a two handed finish. More groundballs than line drives and flyballs with a peak exit velocity of 70 MPH via Trackman.
Defensively: Starts with a low to the ground setup; uses prep hop while playing low to the ground. Hands are underneath the body with a clean transfer. Long arm swing from a high 3/4 arm slot. OF - 59 MPH.
