Body: 5-9, 125-pounds.
Delivery: Balanced delivery with repeatable actions. Stays extended on backside during leg lift as front knee coils into back hip and drives upward. Lead hip pushes down the slope during stride phase. Keeps level shoulders throughout. Stays connected with the ground into landing and maintains a tight glove side at footstrike. Upright finish with core out front at release
Arm Action: RH. Arm works straight back out of the glove and keeps ball above waist height. Shortens up with a more compact action into high 3/4 release with a clean, whippy finish out front
FB: T69, 66-68 mph. T2073, 2001 average rpm.
CB: 61-61 mph. T2215, 2153 average rpm.
SL: 60-60 mph. T2157, 2093 average rpm.
CH: 64-65 mph. T1534, 1461 average rpm.
Body: 5-9, 125-pounds.
Hits: RHH. Open lower half in set up with back leg slightly working inward and some bend in stance. Gathers with a quick leg lift then takes forward stride to get into a wider, more balanced hitting base. Stays behing the ball and rotates around back hip into contact. High hand placement to start with movement/rhythm above back shoulder. Shifts down and back during stride and gets barrel slotted into a lower launch position. Allows him to get on plane early and cover depth in the zone. Middle of the field type approach
Power: 69 max exit velocity, averaged 62.5 MPH. 195' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-71 mph.Arm stays short, bent after exchange. Tight arm circle into 3/4 release. Ball stays above waist throughout
Defense: Slight hop in pre-pitch set up with some hip hinge out front. Steady tempo when moving laterally through the play. Allows ball to travel into stance and keeps it centered while funneling in. Side shuffle to adjust direction towards target and get rhythm on the exchange.
Vizual Edge: 69.12 Edge Score
