Solid frame with room to build and displaying presents wiry strength and super fast twitch overall movements. Ran the 60 yard dash in an impressive 6.47 seconds. Primary position outfielder, getting to the ball with game like speed breaking down into methodical transfer to throw. Midline glove work and leading to shorter inline arm path building feeds up to 84 mph back to the infield. Shows feel for the spot and there is more arm strength to come. Switch hitter, on the right side working from a slightly open stance and wider base to start. Rocks back to load pre-pitch and translates that into plus hand speed as he whips the barrel through the zone. Some length to the path but gets to the barrel and shows some jump.

Good skills on both sides of the ball. Outstanding student as well.
