A projectable, right-handed pitching prospect. Tempo is slower and delivery requires some effort. Arm is loose with whip to it as it moves through a high-¾ slot. With his frame and loose arm expect more velocity to come. Generates well above average arm speed with his fastball currently sitting in the low to mid 80s. The pitch had some arm side run. Spins an 11/5 shaped breaking ball that has depth and sharpness to it. The pitch has potential to be a well above average offering. Control was an issue at times but the arm talent is there. Interesting prospect that has potential to be a scholarship arm. A strong kid with above average bat speed. Loading sequence is fluid. Lower half produces solid energy into contact. Path is level to slightly downhill. Middle of the lineup type guy with easy gap pop. In the infield he moves light on his feet. Hands are soft and ball skills are slightly above average. Projects as an above average defender.
6/21/16 6-foot-1, 160-pound projectable frame. The righty has a slower tempo to a delivery that requires some effort. Has slinging arm action working through a high-¾ slot. Above average armspeed. Fastball has natural run to it while sitting 75-80 mph. Curveball has gradual break with a 10/4 shape. Much sharper when he locates the pitch down in the zone. At the plate he gets the bat through the zone with some batspeed and on a nice level path. Incorporates his lower half through a short stride. Gets energy from weight shift into contact. Reached a top exit velocity of 80 mph and ran a 4.77 from home to first. Threw across the infield with 75 mph arm strength. Showed fluidity to his footwork with adequate hands. Would like to see him play lower.
