Produced consistent line drive contact with flashes of pull side power.

On the mound, uses long arm action that works through a high-3/4 slot. Showed effective fastball/curveball mix. Max fastball velocity at 82.53 mph with a range of 79-82, mostly straight (max 2158 rpm), shows feel for 65-68 mph curveball with 11/5 shape and max spin rate of 2164 rpm.
