Christie stands at a lanky 6 feet, 145 pounds. A two-way player, he projects well on the mound with a rhythmic delivery and regular effort. His arm is long, loose and quick from a high three-quarter slot. He sits 80-82 mph, touching 83, with late run. His curveball is a solid pitch with 11-to-5 shape and sharp, late bite at 68-70. He also shows feel for a changeup. At the plate, he its from a balanced stance with a smooth load and short stride. His swing is long and flat through the zone with quality bat speed. He has shown solid hands and a clean exchange from the outfield with accurate throws and carry.
