Young, athletic frame with broad shoulders, a lean build and room to fill out throughout with additional strength. Primary middle infielder, takes short steps to the ball when charging in, quick transfer and makes the plays with glove, fields the ball out front with wide base, overall fluidity will continue to develop. Also pitched, shows a smooth delivery with good tempo on mound, repeats well and shows good direction towards the plate. Works from an extended and lower three-quarter arm slot, occasionally gets across body at release, flashes running life to arm side and shows command of the plate. Works ahead in the count and to both side, lower slot on breaking ball, creates 10-4 shape with tight rotation and sweeping shape. Right-handed hitter, starts with a wide base and a high hand set. Upper body swing, long swing but gets the barrel to the ball and shows ability to create some extension out front. Keeps hands in through swing, shows carry and comfort hitting to the opposite field. Very good student.
