Physical: Lean, athletic 5-foot-11, 165lb frame with advanced feel. 6.98 runner in the 60.
Offensively: LHH. Loose, slightly open stance with rhythm present in the hands. Utilized a controlled leg hang stride that held onto the backside, initiating the swing through a flat path into the hitting zone. Recorded a T85 mph bat-exit velocity and followed with multiple hits during gameplay. Stayed short inside the ball when having success back towards the middle of the field.
Defensively: The middle infielder chopped the feet with an up-tempo approach, handling himself accurately on the move in either direction. Though the arm posted at 73 mph, the feet showed effortless movements from right to left. Made a full extension diving play to his backhand side and got the out in live portion.
