Short arm action into high-3/4 release with carry and accuracy on throws that produced a positional velocity of 81 mph. Switch-hitter that hits from balanced, athletic setup, smooth load, short stride and excellent balance. Line-drive, gap to gap type hitter with fluid rhythm, strength at contact, level path and bat speed that produced an exit velocity of 87 mph. Also posted a 7.22 60-yard dash.
