At the plate, open stance, slight hand load with stride, level path through the zone, works both gaps. Behind the plate, pop times between 2.15 and 2.28-seconds, 74 mph positional velocity, footwork creates momentum to throw, clean exchanges, over the top arm slot. On the infield, 79 mph positional velocity, over the top arm slot, gains momentum with footwork after the catch, fields ball in athletic position, clean glove to hand exchange, mostly accurate throws
