Also pitched, has a methodical delivery with a big hip turn at the top, arm is loose and fast, good lower half direction down the mound. Fastball topped out at 91 mph, ball comes out of his hand easy, gets nice carry and life in the zone. Tends to get under his curveball but flashed nice tight spin and two-plane shape when he gets on top. Showed a change up in warmups but not in the game. High level athlete who plays with enthusiasm. Good student, verbal commitment to UAB. Named to the Florida Top Prospect Showcase Top Prospect List.
