Hit: Right-handed hitter that begins in an athletic, balanced stance. Simple, smooth loading sequence. Minimal hand movement, with a short stride for timing. Swing is compact and stays inside the ball well. Bat path is level through the zone, with a pull side/middle approach in BP. Power: Present Gap Abilities Offensive Projection: Multiple Roles Field: Worked out from the 1B position. Showcased athleticism in his lateral movements. Looks comfortable around the bag, with soft hands. Throw: Accurate thrower with sufficient arm for position. Defensive Projection: 1B
Delivery/Scouting Notes: 2023 LHP out of Columbus Academy with a solid frame and good arm action through the zone. Smooth, simple tempo throughout delivery. Releases from a high ¾ arm slot that creates a lot of north south action. Fastball: FB showed sink and 2-seam showed quality arm side run Breaking Ball: Gradual breaking ball that shows depth Changeup: Resembled FB arm speed with depth

Hit:Simple, smooth stroke. Bat stays compact through the zone while working on a nice, level path to contact. All fields direction with natural spin up the middle. Line drive to ground ball flight for the majority of his round. Power:Line drive pop. Offensive Projection:Top of lineup. Max BP Exit Velocity:87 mph Max BP Distance: 266 ft Field:In the outfield he plays fast and low throughout process. Hands are soft and he is able to remain athletic through play through. Also worked out at third base where he shows well above average athleticism for the position. Grades out slightly higher over at first base but that much more for his ability at first than any lack of ability in the outfield. Throw:Arm shows signs of more to come. Mostly accurate deliveries. Defensive Projection: Corner look.
