Projectable, physical frame with room for more. Hits from a taller, athletic set up at the plate. Has nice rhythm in swing. Shows some power potential at the plate with a barrel that stays in the zone. Throws show carry from behind the plate and is athletic enough to play corner infield or outfield.
