Physical: Imposing demeanor in a large and projectable 6-foot-2, 200-pound frame featuring advanced strength and athleticism throughout.
Pitching: RHP - The primary righty started from the right side of the rubber with quick pace throughout the delivery, side rocker step to medium leg lift, got directional towards the plate with good feel for the backside while driving out, above average hip shoulder separation allowing the arm to jolt through a whippy, power high ¾ slot upon release getting downhill play and high spin on all pitches. FB ranged from 85-88 mph showing advanced horizontal movement coupled with an upwards of 2305 rpms of spin per Trackman Baseball, made hitters look uncomfortable in the box and had no fear of running it in on the hands at will, paired a sharp two-plane 74-76 mph breaker that has the chances of becoming a plus pitch (2476 rpms and 11/5 shape) while showing ability to sweep it with two strikes. The real deal on the mound and pitches with intent, a true competitor on the mound with in game results to back it up.
