Fastball was up to 85 mph as it flashed slight cut. Mixed in a slider in the upper-60's that showed some sweep to it. Also had a late fading changeup that he had command of. Big time projectability showing here on the mound. Secondary Outfielder, sitting back on the baseball before coming to get it. Gathers and then carries weight well into throws. Loose arm action as he was accurate while throwing it 84 mph during drills. Left-Handed Hitter, starting balanced and then strides to an open stance. Hands get deep and then he utilizes a linear swing path. Very loud contact when he found the barrel as he generates easy torque. Was able to square up velocity as well.
