  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Physical Description: Large frame, maxed out physcially. Large lower half.

Mechanics: Throws from a low three-quarters arm slot. Funky delivery, slinging motion with a quick stride. Creates some deception. Mediocre control.

Fastball: 90-93 mph sinker with soild drop and armside run. Experimenting with a mid-80s cutter.

Slider: 78-83 mph. Sweeping movement with some late bite. Fringe-average pitch.
   Career Notes: High school teammate of Red Sox prospect Brian Van Belle. Late round draft pick out of FIU in 2018. Worked his way up through the Kansas City system and stalled out in Triple-A. Showed the ability to get strikeouts. Recieved an invitation to MLB Spring Training with the Royals in 2023. Traded to Boston for cash considerations in June 2023.

Summation: High minors bullpen depth. Has been used as an opener.
