Central Michigan commit. 6-foot, 185-pound, wide-shouldered, strong, athletic build. One of the top two-way talents in the state. Started at shortstop and hit in the three-hole but did his best work in this game on the mound. Came on in relief and picked up a two-inning save. Did not allow a base runner and struck out three. Ultra-competitive, fiery demeanor on the mound. Went right after hitters with a fastball that sat at 88-90 mph. Works mostly straight with late jump and finish through the zone. Also, showed an above-average curveball with 11/5 shape, thrown with aggression and feel at 76-78 mph. Flashed a straight changeup for a swing-and-miss at 77 mph to a left-handed hitter.
Verbally committed to Central Michigan.
Body: 6-0, 185-pounds. Strong, athletic frame.
Delivery: Smooth tempo, shoulders work slightly uphill, gets push from backside, lands in line with target.
Arm Action: RH. Short action, high 3/4 slot.
FB: T87, 86-87 mph. Four-type, clean out of hand, somewhat firm, intent to work top of zone, some strikes.
CB: 67-70 mph. 11/5 shape, at times 10/4, threw down in the zone at times.
CH: 67-69 mph. Some run/sink, works arm-side, feel for it.
Power: 97 mph exit velocity from the tee. Max exit velocity of 98.55 MPH during BP, max distance of 332 feet, both via TrackMan. Max bat speed of 80.30 MPH via Blast.
Arm: RH. INF - 89 mph. Over-the-top arm slot, short action, throws play accurate and with carry across the infield.
Defense: Quiet feet, sets up behind the baseball, plays through in rhythm, soft steady hands, athletic double play turn, plays with body control and confidence on the move.
Run: 6.91 runner in the 60.
Sturdy build, right-handed pitcher. Delivery works uptempo with pace to play, aggressively pounds the zone. Arm works fast from over-the-top slot. Fastball thrown with conviction, played 80-82 mph, with tilt at times. Showed a curveball at 69-72 mph.
2017 Junior Future Games - Thick, athletic right-handed pitcher. On the mound, short arm action, over-the-top slot. Fastball, heavy arm side run, 72-74 mph. Curveball, 10/4 shape, 61-64 mph. Keeps hitters guessing, horizontal movement gave hitters fits. Offensively, open setup, double tap stride, maintains strength through contact. Caught fire in bracket play, sprayed the baseball all over the field. Made his presence known on the basepaths.
