5-foot-8, 140-pound, LHH hits from a tall and open stance and uses quite a big leg kick and some rhythmic movement with his hands to get loaded, stride lands back in line and gets gives him a good base, lower half is very active and gets through the zone well,  bat path gets steep on lower pitches because of his high hand positioning but drives through balls left up.  Defensively, is very aggressive and attacks the ball in the outfield, good hands and footwork, plays through the ball with confidence and uses a clean and quick exchange, long arm action through a high ¾ release point produced some very accurate throws with good carry.  Pickman will add a lot to his game once he gains some more strength.
