Showed a clean transfer, and quick release to strong accurate throws to the bases from the outfield. Offensively, Covarrubias starts in slightly open, balanced stance. Uses a traditional hand load mechanism before firing to contact. Has excellent bat speed and demonstrated he could use the whole field. On the mound, he features a 3-pitch mix (FB,CB, CH) out of a 3/4 slot. Shows fundamentally sound mechanics with an athletic repeatable delivery. Has a quick, clean arm path. Was able to locate a well and keep the ball down in the zone inducing ground balls. Pitched 2 innings allowing 1 hit and striking out 3. Good student.
