Physical Description:
Mid-sized,
athletic frame. Has some projection left in his upper half and should
add strength as he matures.
Mechanics:
Throws from a compact high three-quarters arm slot, starting on the first
base side of the rubber. Pronounced leg kick, large stride
towards home plate. Falls off to the first base side
post-delivery, sometimes significantly. Effortful but not
violent arm mechanics.
Fastball: Reportledly sits at 93-96 mph and has
topped out at 97-98 mph at age 20.
Slider: Low-80s slider shows plus potential in
video. Reportedly inconistent.
Changeup: Low 80s changeup with some fade.

Career
Notes: Two-way player in high school, pitching and
working as a switch-hitting shortstop. Showed great range and
athleticsm at short. Was reportedly overused on the mound.
Pitched for Taiwan in the 2017 U18 World Cup. Went to Culture
University out of high school rather than entering the CBPL
draft. Took a break from pitching for two seasons to rest his
arm. Returned to pitching in 2019, dialing his fastball up to 98
mph. Was named MVP of the 2019 Asian Baseball Championship,
where he was a teammate of Tzu-Wei Lin. After arriving in Fort
Myers for Spring Training in 2020, missed time when team had him
quarantine in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Participated in 2020 Fall Instructional League.
Summation: High ceiling based on early
video looks at his fastball-slider combo. Will need to show a
third pitch. Still has projection. Athleticsm could carry
him far.
This page will be updated with a scouting
report after the scouting team has seen the player in person.
