6-foot-3, 164-pound prospect. Long, athletic frame. Confident approach on the mound. Throws from a high ¾ slot with some quickness to his arm. Fastball sat at 75-78 mph - but definitely easy to see more to come. Occasional run to the pitch. Changeup has some cutting action at 69-61 mph. Needs to maintain arm speed for the pitch to be more effective. Breaking ball has 12/6 type action. Tended to be up in the zone. Like his changeup, will be aided by throwing with faster arm speed. A right-handed hitter that starts slightly open and uses a leg kick load to get back to even. He uses a bat tip to load his upper half before taking an uphill path to the ball. Registered a top exit velocity of 79 mph. In the outfield he threw accurately with decent carry at a top velocity of 77 mph. Expect that number to improve once he learns how to maintain momentum through fielding position into his throws.
