6-foot-2, 209-pound athletic prospect. Wide stance, hands extremely quick to the baseball. Strong and explosive swing with power to all fields. Recorded bat exit velocity of 93 mph. Soft hands at first base with good composure around the bag. On the mound, good rhythm through delivery but lacks aggressive and balanced finish. High front side with downhill action. Fastball sat 82-85 and curveball registered at 69-70 mph with 10/4 shape. Finding consistency with the release point to improve control on the mound will put him in the mix with top 2-way players in the 2018 class.
