A physical presence with a straight-line body type, standing 6-foot, 185 pounds.  Fundamentally sound on the infield, makes a lot of plays look routine.  Soft hands and a quick, fluid exchange allow him to stay athletic through the transition to a short arm action and ¾ slot that can float depending on the play.  Positional velocity of 74 across the infield came with ease, producing carry.  A good athlete, ran a 2.89 twenty-yard dash and a 4.68 5-10-5 agility test.  Also turned in a solid 9’6” standing broad jump.  From the right side, it is a strong swing with a direct approach.  Balanced, uses a smooth load and short stride.  Good bat speed, works to get extension producing line drives to the pull side.  Top hand stays on the bat after extension, creating some stiffness as he works for full extension through the baseball.  Exit velocity peaked at 84 mph.

Very intriguing athlete.  Looks the part in the uniform with an athletic build and strong lower half.  Frame can continue to add strength.  Arm showed carry at short.  Hands work well but don't always have rhythm with the feet, causing some awkward exchanges.  Balanced in the box, flashing above average bat speed.  On the mound the curveball has "out-pitch" potential with hard late tilt at 67-70.  Trusted command of breaking ball over fastball.  Fastball ranged 78-81 from a high-3/4 slot.  Athletic delivery with good posture and a quick hand.
