Scouting Report

07/14/18- Uncommitted. Currently stands at 5-foot-10, 170 pounds with a strong, solid frame. Showed above average all around defensive tools. In the infield, he has solid defensive actions and range. Behind the plate he is athletic with quick twitch actions. The hands work very well, haas present hip flexibility and an overall feel for the position. Offensively, he has a simple set up and swing. There can be a little length, but when he is compact he uses strength in the wrist and lower half to generate above average bat speed. Showed present barrel awareness and despite not getting a hit, he was on the barrel in both of his at-bats.
