The path is slightly uphill through contact and he shows the ability to find the barrel. On the mound, the fastball sat 85-87 mph with arm side action to the fastball. The spin pitch was 70-71 mph and can still be shortened for more swing and miss to the pitch. The changeup is a developing pitch. The delivery is solid in tempo, above 3/4 in slot and repeated. The arm is quick and clean out front. The tracking of the front shoulder can improve as he matures in age.
