Maintains balance throughout swing. Bat exit velocity of 80 mph in November 2015. Quick hands, with short and level swing path. Good extension through the ball. Line drive hitter with potential gap power. Decent rhythm. Threw from a loose, high three-quarters arm slot with accuracy. Positional velocity of 81 mph last November.
