5-foot-11, 205- pound left-handed pitcher. Physical left-handed pitcher who showed excellent arm speed and stuff at the event. The command of the ball needs to improve but you cannot deny the quickness of his arm. The fastball touched 86 mph, heavy and has arm side run at times. The spin pitch was 67-69 mph, at times, good in shape. The changeup has good action, sitting at 77-79 mph, tick to hard. The delivery is online with the feet and above ¾ in slot. The post foot is on top of the rubber. The lift is quick and the glove side is under control. There is a small amount of forward lean as he makes his way into the lift. Showed recoil after release, usual for a guy who is going to throw hard. Two-way prospect that is getting under valued as he has serious juice with the bat as well.

5-foot-11, 185-pound left-handed hitting first baseman and pitcher. Impressive showing with the bat at the event. The bat is advanced. Tee exit velocity of 95 mph. Sets up with his base even, top half is upright throughout the swing. The front foot is picked up and put down as the ball approaches the hitting zone. The bat speed is legit and he hammers the ball. Could be a dangerous middle of the order bat down the road. The glove is solid at first base, the feet work well around the bag. Threw 78 mph across the diamond with a clean and fast arm. Ran a 7.25 sixty on the laser at the event. On the mound, the fastball touched 78 mph, arm side run to the pitch. The spin pitch is good in shape and form, sat at 68-72 mph. The changeup is a work in progress, sitting at 70-71 mph. The delivery is online with the feet, ¾ in slot. The glove side is soft and the lift is repeated. The front knee and foot come up very early in the leg drive to foot strike, certainly hurts his velocity as his arm is quicker than 78 mph. If he fixed that up, stayed closed longer, he would throw hard as the arm is fast.
