Left handed hitter, hits from an open start with an easy close and good rhythm to his swing, turns hard and creates very good bat speed, aggressive pull oriented swing, showed big juice on the ball, impressive present bat speed from an athlete who projects to get much stronger. 6.82 runner in the sixty. Primary shortstop on defense, has clean actions overall, gets the glove down early and fields it cleanly, is balanced and under control on the run, throws from a high slot when set with good carry on his throws, plenty of middle of the field athleticism. Took at turn on the mound, has a simple turn and throw delivery with a compact high 3/4's arm action. Fastball topped out at 88 mph, has big confidence in his change up and will double/triple up on it, bigger soft 11/5 curveball can be effective too. Solid three-pitch mix of strikes. Just a good all around athlete who has a chance to stand out with the bat. Excellent student.
