Ran the fastball up to 74 mph (1816 RPM) which played up with change of speeds from his changeup around 64 mph (1372 RPM) that showed depth down in the zone. Used his breaking ball with solid break and lateral depth as a third offering in the mid-60s (2006 RPM). Three-pitch mix with control around the zone from all three offerings. Secondary corner infielder with deliberate actions to gather and throws across the diamond at 71 mph. Deep funnel to exchange working at first base with developing footwork around the bag. Right-handed hitter with a narrow base and open stance in the box. Knee-lift trigger stride to even with hands dropping from high start into slot.

Excellent student.
