Lean, athletic frame that threw from a 3/4 slot. His arm action is quick, with a shorter arm path than usual which provided a different look for hitters at the plate. FB was 82-83 mph while topping at 84, mostly straight action. CB sat 70-73 with 11/5 shape, thrown for strikes low in the zone. Flashed an average CH at 77. Worked comfortably out of the stretch with guys on base. The frame suggests that there is more velocity left in the tank.
Large frame with room to grow. Will benefit from physical maturity. Good feel for the barrel. Linedrive 2b off the right field wall and linedrive 1b to left field, both driving in runs. Uncommitted.
Positional Profile: 1B/RHP
Body: 6-1, 195-pounds.
Hit: RHH. Sight open stance, leans into hitting zone, early rhythm into pre-set hands, spray contact, mid/pull approach.
Power: 87 mph exit velocity from the tee.
Arm: RH. INF - 74 mph.
Defense: Sure hands, makes routine plays.
Run: 7.33 runner in the 60.
Delivery: Rocker step into medium tuck and turn, has rhythm and tempo to delivery, lands inline, avg. extension to plate.
Arm Action: RH. High ¾ with clean compact arm action.
FB: T80, 79-80 mph. Drives FB downhill with good control.
CB: 69-70 mph. Small 11/5 shape and break.
CH: 72-75 mph. Firm with late running action.
