Solid first base tools on defense, 7.41 runner. Also pitched. Easy on line delivery, high 3/4's arm slot, minimum effort delivery, could use lower half more. Fastball to 79 mph, good 12/6 downer curveball with sharp biting action, good feel for curveball, occasional change up. Has the potential to improve on the mound. Good student.
