Positional Profile: MIF/RHP
Physical: 5-8, 135-pounds; Average, lean build. 7.58 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet shoulder width apart; flat bat start to upright bat position. Loads straight back with a gliding stride for timing. Slides weight forward pre-contact. while showing an average effort from the legs. Showed a flat swing path with two handed finish. More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 76 MPH via Trackman. Able to create loft and backspin, able to keep the ball off the ground, consistently on-plane.
Defensively: Starts with a balanced setup; uses prep hop while showing active feet. Hands are underneath the body while funneling to the hip before transfer. Moderate arm circle from a standard 3/4 arm slot. INF - 72 MPH. Sure soft hands, circles ball to get in line for the throw, reads ball cleanly, sound fundamentals.
Pitching: Uses a center rubber setup while using a side step. Mid chest leg drive with a slight coil away from the plate. Has a long stride landing inline with the plate. Short take back while showing some scap load; high-3/4 slot. Square to the plate with finish. FB: Peak velo of 72 MPH, while sitting 71-72 MPH; straight action. CB: 60-62 MPH; 11-5 shape. CH: 66-67 MPH; runs. Big CB showed as his best pitch, has steep tumbling action in the zone, short backside could create some deception as he hides the ball with a slight turn of the front shoulder.
