Primary third baseman, fields the ball out front, active footwork and moves to the backhand well, quick and clean exchanges to get the ball out of glove, funnels well and moves well charging in, accurate throws across the diamond with carry. Righthanded hitter, begins with a balanced and slightly open stance with a high back elbow in the box. Upper body swing with a simple set of mechanics, repeats them well. Line drive swing plane through the zone and extends through contact well. Consistently gets the barrel to the ball and shows carry off the barrel to pull side when squared. Very good student.
