Body: 5-foot-10, 180-pound physical frame with current strength in the lower half.
Hit: RHH. At the plate starts with a neutral stance and upright posture. Pre-shifts the weight into the back leg at set up. Hands get set at shoulder height with a high back elbow and wrapped barrel angle. Very short stride to even weight distribution with hands working linearly through the zone. Good balance throughout the swing. Slight uphill bat path and tries to work the ball up in the air. Has some strength at contact with the hands.
Power: 83 mph exit velocity off the tee and 90 mph exit velocity in BP.
Arm: RH. C-69 mph. Very short arm swing on the back with good hand speed and hand working close to the mask at release.
Defense: Behind the plate prefers to receive with one knee in the dirt with strong wrists at catch. Hips work quickly to the ground on balls in the dirt with a high posture. Does a good job of getting feet and momentum headed towards second base out of the crouch and registered pop times ranging from 2.09-2.15.
Run: 5.12 runner to first base.
Delivery: On the mound uses a quick paced rocker style delivery. Works to a high balance point with weight stacked on the back leg. Gets push off the rubber with slight knee bend on the back side. Works from the first base side of the rubber and strides directionally down the center of the mound. Athletic finish and good balance.
Arm Action: High ¾ arm slot with clean arm swing and release.
FB: 75-79 mph, low-spinning sinker style action with some arm side run.
CB: 63-64 mph, early breaking shape with some downward depth.
CH: 70-72 mph, good hand speed with some slight fade to the arm side.
