Works from the windup with a small side step and belt high leg lift. Stays slightly flexed at gather going to drop and drive actions down the mound. Has good linear direction at foot strike, allowing good extension through finish over the front side. Long loose arm action from a mid three-quarters arm slot. Creates some downhill plane and attacks the strike zone with fastball at 80-to-84 miles per hour. Developing feel for a curveball with over the top 12-to-6 shape at 61 miles per hour. Flashes a late fading changeup with good control to the glove side at 73 miles per hour. Secondary third baseman, athletic movements in the infield, flashes some range. Works through the ball and gets on top with an over the top slot. Wide with a high back elbow and some present barrel speed at the plate. Developing barrel control, but flashes the ability to create some leverage and create hard contact. Shows most power when catching it out front and using the pull side. Excellent student.
