Laterally, his movements were athletic. Behind the plate, throw downs to second topped out at 73 mph; has athletic rhythmic feet, a clean exchange, and soft consistent hands. Had quick feet and transfers on his throw downs, recording a 1.93-1.97 pop time. Athletic setup with a lot of flexibility. During the event, recorded a 60 time of 7.15.

Offensive Projection: Middle upside.
Field: Good athlete behind the dish with flexible hips and quick actions. Smooth back there but also has burst. Clean transfer with solid exchange abilities in general.
Throw: 72 mph arm strength to second base. Accurate thrower.
