Hit: LHH. Starts from a slightly open stance with small bend in his knees and hands are set hight above his head just behind it and a high back elbow. Deep weight shift with a draw back of the front foot into an aggressive forward move as his hands work down into the launch position. Utilizes an aggressive quick turn of his hips through the middle of his body while maintaining balance throughout the swing.

Shows leverage with a finish just above his shoulders that produces consistent hard line drive contact.

Arm: RH. C-76 mph. Transfer is quick and clean with ability to get the ball out of the glove and out of the hand. Throws are online with consistent carry to the base that will play as a potentially average to fringe above average tool.
