Comments
Defensively, plays ball bottom up and out front. Demonstrates soft hands and adequate foot work. Throwing motion is somewhat long with 74 mph arm strength across the diamond. Furka is a 7.04 runner. Arm strength may necessitate move to right side of infield. However, overall skill set may make transition somewhat seamless.
