Bat speed is average, displays a loose upward swing plane and high finish. Found some barrels with some loud contact. Up the middle approach. Projectable solid in the infield, his best throw was recorded at 67 mph; has soft hands, a quick exchange, and smooth feet. Laterally, movements were developing and fielded the ball out front. Showed a loose arm action and a ¾ slot with consistent accuracy to the base. Clocked a time of 9.0 in the 60-yard dash. Projectable on the mound, using a loose arm action he showed some arm speed from a ¾ arm angle. Tall-and-fall stretch only type pitcher and shows easy effort.
