Very short line drive swing, fast whippy bat, slightly uphill finish. Showed good approach working gap to gap, has the potential to develop more power, exit velocity was 83.

3.30.17: Athletic frame (6-foot, 170). Hits from an athletic, slightly open setup with high hands over the shoulder. Leg kick load to hitting position with balance. Level path with some extension through contact. Showed very good ability as receiver for 2019 grad. Athletic stance, sticks the ball well, good flexibility and hip control. Did nice job on the low ball sticking and keeping in strike zone. Clean exchange and sound footwork on throws to second. 2.13 in between inning pop, 2.26 in game pop. Arm strength should continue to increase. Should continue to progress as he fills out his frame.
