Filled up zone with curveball, slurve shape with big command and 10-4 shape at 70 mph. Changes velocity on changeup with intent, fade on pitch at 74 mph. Fields the ball out front in the infield, shows strength and quick hands from a lower arm slot. Short a short, line drive swing from the right side using a leg lift trigger.
