  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Physical Description: Sturdy frame. Looks bigger than his listed height and weight and has gotten stronger since he signed.

Mechanics: Throws from a three-quarters arm slot. Rhythmic delivery. Starts on the first base side of the rubber. High leg kick. Short arm action back with a stab, but hides the ball well. Quick arm action coming forward. Gets above-average extension.

Fastball: 93-95 mph. Tops out at 96 mph. Velocity has ticked up a little each year. Pitch gets on hitters quickly due to his high extension. Potential above-average offering with refined command and control.

Curveball: 74-78 mph. Advanced feel. Vertical shape with depth. Can really snap it off and has shown the ability to either bury it down and out of the zone or land it in the zone.

Slider: 84-85 mph. 10-to-4 break. Good shape. At its best, shows two-plane break and bite.

  Changeup: 84-85 mph. Deceptive arm speed. Some late fade.

Career Notes: Was set to participate in the 2022 Fall Performance Program that was canceled due to Hurricane Ian.

Summation: Potential organizational arm. Still has a relatively wide range of potential outcomes, as he has seen his velocity improve each year and has some traits teams look for. Secondaries need refinement, but shows solid control already. Command lags behind at present. Fastball and curveball give him a solid baseline to miss bats at the lower levels, but needs to continue to develop the rest of his arsenal.

Note: This page will be updated with a complete scouting report after the scouting team has seen the player in regular season game action.
