A right-handed hitter that starts in a tall, open stance. Uses a short stride for timing as hands stay simple through load and into launch. Aggressive swinger with a level path. Offers a bit more strength than speed through the zone with both tools playing above average for class. Intent compromises a bit of barrel accuracy but can do some damage when squares it up. Arm stands out behind the plate. Ball jumps out of his hands with his throws showing carry and accuracy. Looks to be an above average receiver in game as well.

A right-handed bat that starts in a tall stance. Barrel is fluid and maintains momentum during his double tap timing mechanism. Swing is compact and he swings with intent to do damage. Both strength and bat speed project to be well above average tools. Has the look of a run producer type bat. Behind the dish he has above average catch and throw skills for age. Very consistent with an accurate arm.

A right-handed bat that starts in a tall setup. Uses a double tap into initiate lower half. Hands move to shoulder prior to launch. Path is level to slightly downhill. Has some bat speed there and finds the barrel often. Showed more pop to his pull side. Behind the plate he starts in a lower crouch. Footwork has some quickness to it and creates solid direction. Will need to clean up exchange moving forward. Throws were on target for the most part.

At the plate he starts in a balanced setup. Uses a double tap to start his loading sequence. Hands move back to launch. Barrel gets flat prior to swing decision causing lag at times. Showed more pop to his pull side. Uses fluid, slower footwork in the outfield. Ensures ball security before getting into his crow hop. Would like to see him play through the ball more aggressively to maintain momentum into his throws. At the plate he starts tall and takes hands to launch during his controlled stride. Gets power from his weight shift into contact. Path is downhill. Handles the low pitch well. Produced backspin on his line drives to the opposite field. Behind the dish, he starts in an off balanced stance. Footwork is average. Has room to improve his transfer with better glove to hand exchange. Throws with short arm action through high ¾ slot. Pop times ranged between 2.11 to 2.18.
