Primary middle infielder on defense, has athletic actions and can make plays on the run, shows good side to side range, quick transition from glove to hand throwing, plenty of arm for second base. Also pitched, has a loose delivery with a high 3/4's arm slot that gets downhill well, some energy at release, tends to fall off to the first base side and lose direction.
