Right handed hitter, starts with a busy hand load and a toe turn timer into his stride, long uphill swing plane, looking to lift the ball, long and extended swing. 7.37 runner in the sixty. Primary first baseman on defense, moves well and has good feet and agility for his size, plenty of arm strength as well. Also pitched, high front side to the plate with a high 3/4's arm slot, can extend better out front on release. Fastball topped out at 85 mph, tends to work to the arm side. Soft curveball was his best pitch this day, landed it well with 12/6 shape and some spin/depth. Excellent student.
