Lanky, with plenty of room for added strength, at 6-foot-4, 170 pounds.  Coordination is coming, with quickness in the body as he ran a 7.33 sixty, closing the final 30 yards.  One of his first bullpens of the fall, worked to stay under control and velocity was down from what will be expected in the fall.  Long arm action, with a slight bottoming out, release gets to a high-3/4 slot with average arm speed.  Lands slightly closed, creating a tough angle on left handed hitters.  Some rhythm to the delivery that will become better as he continues to grow into his length.  Fastball ranged 76-79, touching 81.  Straight, there is occasional cut with feel for both sides of the plate.  The change has some sink at 66-68.  Mimics the fastball hand speed and window.  Breaking ball works with gradual 12/6 action at 63-66.  Commands the strike zone with spin, but not the glove. 
Left handed hitter works from a tall base with waggle in the bat head.  Short stride, the bat head works to a vertical launch position.  Average bat speed, works for extension with good rhythm.  Pull side tendency with high barrel awareness.  Exit velocity peaked at 77 off the barrel.  Defensively, works to play through the ball in the outfield.  Some caution working to transition the ball to an over-the-top slot.   84 mph out of the hand with average carry and good accuracy.
