Ran a 7.70 second sixty yard dash. Primary Right-Handed Pitcher, working with a simple operation as he utilized drop and drive mechanics. Small arm circle in the back before releasing from a three-quarter slot. Intent in the delivery as he filled up the zone. Fastball up to 79 mph with arm side run. Also mixed in a breaking ball with 10-to-4 shape and a very good changeup that faded late. Maintained arm speed on off-speed pitches and proved to be deceptive. Secondary Third Baseman, sitting back on the baseball as he makes sure to keep it in front of him. Gathers and then shuffles into throws. Longer arm action and was accurate to the target as he threw it 79 mph. Right-Handed Hitter, starting narrow with a slightly open front side. Higher leg lift before striding out.
