Medium, square shouldered frame with long limbs and a lean build with room to fill throughout moving forward. Ran a 7.88 60-yard dash. Primary first baseman, plays back on the ball, fields it out front and works into a longer arm action through the backside, shows accuracy on throws and has the ability to drop slot on throws with extension, young footwork away from the bag. Also pitched, turn step into delivery with a leg lift up to belt, works to a three-quarters release point with a short arm action at release. Fastball topped out at 69 mph, pitched to contact and worked around the zone, extended out front, mostly true in life with flashes through the zone; tends to slow on release of curveball, up to 60 mph. Left-handed hitter, begins with a high hand set and back elbow at the plate with a slightly open stance. Longer swing path through the zone, best contact when working on a linear swing path, shift into contact well; works to all fields, some life off of the barrel when squared. Excellent student.
