6-foot-2, 190-pound prospect. On the mound the right-hander has a slower paced delivery. Stays tall at balance point and lands in line to home plate.  Uses long arm action and works through a high-3/4 slot. Fastball sat 75-77 mph, topping at 79 mph and was mostly straight through the zone. Changeup had some fade to it, while entering the zone at 67-69 mph. Spins an 11/5 breaking ball with gradual break at 60-62 mph. In the outfield he gets to the ball in a timely fashion and did a nice job of fielding through the baseball cleanly. Throws through over the top slot. Right-handed hitter that starts in a tall, slight open stance. Uses a small stride. Room to improve use of his lower half as there is small momentum to his swing. Limited load with his upper-half. Hands start above shoulder height taking downward path to the ball. Two-handed finish to his swing. Top exit velocity of 82 mph off the tee.
