Physical Description: Skinny frame. Athletic build with
some remaining projection. Needs to add strength.
Mechanics: Low three-quarters arm slot. Does
not use a wind-up. Stiff delivery. Slings the ball. Short arm
action behind, hides the ball well.
Fastball:
88-92 mph. Tops out at 94 mph. Pitch will show sink. Velocity
has improved from the high-80s during the 2020 Fall
Instructional League. Throws a lot of strikes, but has a
below-average command profile. Average potential.
Curveball: 76-78 mph. Slurvy breaking ball.
Long, 2-to-8 break. Some are more horizontal, others have more
vertical shape. Inconsistent at present, but fringe-average
potential.
Changeup: 84-86 mph. Some feel for the
pitch, but needs work. Flashes the ability to turn it over and
bury it down and out of the zone for swinging strikes.
Below-average potential. |

Career Notes: Opening Day starter for the DSL
Red Sox 2 in 2019. Participated in Fall Instructional League in
2019 and 2020. Participated in the Fall Performance Program in
2021. Was set to participate in the 2022 Fall Performance
Program that was cancelled due to Hurricane Ian.
Summation: Potential minor league depth arm.
Ceiling of an organizational arm. Shows the early makings of a
three-pitch mix, but does not have stand-out stuff and lacks a
major league-quality pitch. Velocity has improved already. Has
some deception in his delivery and already shows some feel. Has
a way to go developmentally and future potential depends on him
maturing physically and his stuff improving.
