Balanced swing where his strong hands work the barrel on an uphill path. Inconsistent barrels but flashed some quality impact to the pulllside. On the mound, he side steps into a mid chest knee lift. Slight drop into his backleg as his arm works longer out the glove and to release at a H ¾ slot. Lands in-line and finishes hard. His fastball worked up to 78 where he showed solid gloveside command of it. Mixed in a slurvy breaking ball that he had a tendency to pull off of. Also flashed a low spin changeup in the low 70s that has some upside. Was named to Top Prospects list.
