Body: 6-0, 155-pounds. Lean build with long limbs. High waisted. Projectable with gains. Delivery: Smooth and clean delivery. Side steps into a higher knee tuck that works quickly down the mound after. Glove hand works high which angle the shoulders more uphill. Decent energy down the mound that is in line throughout. Finishes still moving towards home and slightly falling towards first. Arm Action: RH. Loose arm. Full arm circle in the back that gets to an H 3/4 slot. Some decent arm speed that accelerates as it gets up. Doesn't slow down arm on offspeed. Struck out 4 in his 3 innings of work. FB: T83, 78-82 mph. Decent spin for velo. When missed it was up in the zone. Higher tilt at around 12:30 led spin to increase vertical break that averaged around 20 inches. CB: 65-67 mph. Only spun 3 and 2 were for strikes. More slider-like due to more present HB break and 8:30 tilt. CH: 73-75 mph. Around equal HB and VB break. More HB break than fastball that showed with some present arm side fade.

Mecanics: Repeatable and athletic in delivery. Good use of lower half. Arm works loose and fluid with good arm speed as it gets to release. Stays in good direction towards home. 4Ks in two innings only giving up 1H.
FB: Good vertical break at around 22 inches average and 25.3 max gives it good rise. Located well and it was his dominant pitch that got him his Ks.
SL: Real good feel in the zone. Slurvy shape with some present vertical break that gives it some nice depth.
