Released (May 2020)

Physical Description: Athletic frame. Good size for a middle infielder. Needs to add strength.

Hit: Open stance. Starts with his hands high. Hitch in swing causes bat to drag through the zone. One-handed, high finish. Raw approach. Struggles with pitch recognition and against velocity. Bat will be tested by more advanced pitching.

Power: Well-below average power potential. Not a major part of his game. Will show pull power on occasion.

Run: Below-average speed. Slow out of the box, average instincts. Not a stolen base threat.

Field:
Above-average defensive profile. Strong instincts in the field. Moves well, quick first step. Fluid actions, soft hands. Will on occasion lose focus and boot a routine play.

Arm
: Average arm strength. Passable at third base and shortstop.

Career Notes: Participated in the Fall Instructional League in 2018.

Summation: Projects as an organizational infielder. Lack of offensive projection limits upside.
