Right handed hitter, hits from a turned in upper body start, gets out to his front side early and swings aggressively, repeated his timing well, gets the ball in the air to the pull side, bat speed will continue to improve with additional strength and physical maturity. Took a turn on the mound, has full free flowing delivery with a loose 3/4's arm slot. Threw mostly fastballs and topped out at 72 mph, did a good job throwing strikes and challenging hitters. Also threw an occasional sweeping curveball that will further develop. Good athlete who should keep improving in all areas.
