Physical Description: Slender
frame. Still listed at signing weight of 155, appears to have
added around 20 pounds to his frame since signing. Still has
some remaining projection, will need to continue to add
strength.
Hit: Switch hitter.
Below-average hit tool at present. Can be a little overly
aggressive at the plate, a lot of swing-and-miss in his game.
Able to lay off pitches outside the zone, will take a walk.
Doesn’t fare particularly well against spin, breaking stuff, or
high velo.
Power: Not currently part of
his game. Gap power at best. Impacts the ball when he makes
contact resulting in decent exit velocities, but there’s little
to no loft in his swing. Lots of ground balls.
Run: Average to plus runner. Solid baserunner.
Field: Carrying tool at time of signing. Soft
hands and smooth actions in the field with good instincts. Able
to adequately cover shortstop, second base, and third base.
Plays corner outfield in a pinch. The organization appears to
respect his defensive skills enough to regularly call him up to
cover for injured players at higher levels.

Arm: Reports range from average to plus arm.
Career Notes: Signed
Boston's biggest bonus of the 2022 international class. Trained
with Raul "Banana" Valera, a member of MLB's Trainer Partnership
Program, at the Banana Baseball Academy. Impressed at a 2019 MLB
Trainer Partnership Program showcase in Arizona. Has yet to show
much at the plate outside of the complex leagues. Bounced around
three levels in 2024.
Summation:
Profiles as a versatile organizational player. Glove-first
infielder who was seen as one of the top defenders in his IFA
class. Defense and speed will be his calling cards. Primary
development key will be if he can make strides with his bat.
Note: This page will be
updated with a complete scouting report after the scouting team
has seen the player in person.
