2/14/21
Positional Profile: C/SS/RHP
Body: 6-foot, 175-pound athletic frame with more room to grow and add strength.
Hit: RHH. At the plate showed a slightly open and athletic stance. Simple stride that gets back to neutral position. Keeps hands tight to body and has a middle-out approach with the bat path. Bat path works down to the ball inducing more low line drives and ground balls. Hands work quickly through the zone and likes to see the ball deeper into the hitting zone. Strength at contact is developing and power should project as he adds strength and size to frame.
Power: 83 mph exit velocity from the tee.
Arm: RH. C-70 mph, INF-80 mph. In the infield a low ¾ release with arm working across the body. Behind the plate a higher ¾ arm slot with a short release on the back end.
Defense: In the infield showed active feet and good routes to the ball. Showed good athleticism and range working both to the glove size and backhand side. Quick release and a feel for glove action out in front of the body. Behind the plate showed good feet coming out of the crouch. Very quick exchanges with pop times ranging from 1.87-2.01. Release point was a little inconsistent on this day but when the release matches the feet and rhythm the throws were on point with good accuracy.
Run: 4.32 runner from home to first.
Delivery: Works exclusively out of the stretch. Smooth rhythm with lower half and upper half working together nicely. Gets to a good balance point and explodes down the mound with a very quick arm.
Arm Action: RH. High ¾ arm slot with short arm action on the back end.
FB: 83-85 mph, straight action with good riding life at the top of the zone. Ball explodes out of his hand.
CB: 65-70 mph, big mover with a very high spin rate of 2533 rpm.
SL: 70-73 mph, 9/3 shape with cutting action and high spin rate.
