6/21/16 6-foot, 180-pound strong, athletic build. A talented right-handed pitcher that uses a quicker paced tempo to a delivery that requires some effort. Still has some rawness to him but arm really works. Has long, loose arm action while working through a high-¾ slot. Fastball sat consistently 84-86 mph, which should continue to rise as he learns to incorporate his lower half in his delivery. His best offspeed pitch is his 11/5 shaped breaking ball that has late, sharp action at 68-69 mph. At the plate he uses a rhythmic toe turn load to get his lower half involved. His vertical barrel start gives him natural whip through the zone. Gap to gap pop at this stage with average batspeed and above average strength through the zone. Registered an exit velocity of 90 mph and ran a 4.69 from home to first. In the infield he has smooth footwork and adequate glove skills. Tends to play from heels. Strong arm across the infield.
7/8/15 5-foot-11, 170-pound athletic, thinner body frame with still some room left to fill out with. From third base he uses good athletic footwork to approach ground balls. He fields the ball with soft hands, out in front of his body. He throws with a clean, short arm action coming from a low ¾ slot and reached a top velocity of 75 mph across the infield.
