Body Type: 5-foot-10, 175-pound frame. Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Momentum style delivery that has some rhythm to it. Generates solid energy down the mound with lower half. Looks to be able to repeat the delivery that doesn’t require much effort. Fastball: 73-74 mph. Mostly true through the zone. Lived below the barrel with the pitch all day. 1700-1900 with low 90s spin efficiency. Curveball: 68-69 mph. 11/5 gradual shaped breaker that he has feel for. Pitchability: Strike thrower. Hit: Simple load followed by a compact, aggressive stroke. Swing travels on a slightly downhill path to contact. A bit stronger than he is fast with the bat presently. Worked line to line in BP. Power: Line drive pop. 84.9 off the bat in BP. Offensive Projection: Table setter. Field: Plays under control in the infield with quickness to his feet. Hands work with ball skills on par for class. Also worked out behind the dish. Capable skill set with mechanically sound actions. Throw: Clean arm with respectable strength and more to come. Defensive Projection: C/2B.
1/22/17 5-foot-8, 145-pound prospect. At the plate the righty starts balanced with his bat vertical. Little load before his aggressive stride forward. Bat takes a downhill path to the baseball. A contact type hitter that found the barrel more often than not in batting practice. Worked mostly to his pull side in batting practice. Would be aided by more weight gather in his load. In the infield he showed quickness to his feet and confidence in his glove. Tends to field from heels at times.
