  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Physical Description: Athletic, undersized frame. Twitchy. Minimal remaining projection.

Hit: Starts slightly open in a crouch with hands high. Short, compact slappy swing. Does not really incorporate his lower half in his swing. Solid contact skills. Knows the strike zone and uses all fields. Makes a lot of contact on the ground. Potential average hit tool.

Power: Swing is not designed for power. Does not consistently lift the ball. Well below-average power potential.

Run: Plus-plus speed. Strong baserunning instincts.

Field: Solid range. Played center field in the year he was drafted, but has played primarily corner outfield since. Average instincts and inconsistent with his reads. Profiles best in left field. Potential fringe-average defender.
  Arm: Average arm strength. Fits best in left field, but passable in right field.

Career Notes: Played two seasons with Chipola JC before transferring to UNC Greensboro. Drafted by Seattle in 2021, was traded to San Diego with Ray Kerr for Adam Frazier in November 2021. Was acquired from San Diego with Eric Hosmer and Max Ferguson for Jay Groome in August 2022. Selected to participate in the Arizona Fall League in 2023.

Summation: Projects as a solid organizational player. Ceiling of an emergency utility player. Has some tools including speed and solid contact skills that are emphasized after the 2023 rules changes in MLB. Solid makeup. Works hard and vocally supports his teammates. On his way back to the dugout after hitting will often talk through what he saw with the hitter on deck. Will get the most out of his tools.
