A physical bat who took a loud BP. Uses a leg kick for timing while keeping hands quiet prior to launch. Path has some natural loft through the zone, allowing him to lift the baseball without sacrificing natural tools. Strength stands out in swing. Ball comes off well, showing present gap abilities with emerging power on its way. At first base he has the frame for the position with obvious feel for the spot. Plays off the bag with confidence and mechanically sound feet. Solid defender over there.

6-foot, 190-pound strong build. Ran an 8.11 60-yard dash. At the plate he has above average batspeed through the zone with good strength through contact. Would be aided by a more efficient lower half. Showed the ability to work to both sides of the field. Reached a top exit velocity of 82 mph. In the infield has showed adequate footwork around the bag at first base. Glove skills are developing. Threw across the infield with 68 mph arm strength. On the mound he has a quicker tempo to a delivery that requires some effort. Fastball has run to it at times, sitting 70-73 mph. Also flashed an 11/5 shaped curveball at 59-60 mph.
