5-foot-11, 148-pound, average athletic frame, the neck is long, shoulders are rounded, has room to fill out and add weight on. A right-handed hitter, the stance is even at shoulder width, back elbow is extended outward. For timing uses a small controlled leg kick, gains ground with the stride. The swing is level to up, approach is more to the pull side, finishes the swing with two hands. Looks to roll the hands early, is a front foot hitter, tee exit velocity was clocked at 77 mph, with more in there as he adds strength and natural maturation. Time down the line was 4.6, collected a single in game play. Defensively, worked out behind the plate, had a pop time of 2.22-2.31, arm was clocked at 70 mph, it works out of a higher slot, it’s fluid and clean, needs more strength to it. The feet looked to be quick in transfers, needs to tighten everything up to help drop the pop time. The actions and movements are there, is raw with ability. Will be an interesting follow leading into next year. Strength is a must, will aid in his development.
