time. Has swing and miss in his game, but also will take a walk.

Arm:
Average arm.
Career Notes:
Played infield and catcher in
high school in North Carolina. Also played football. Not drafted
out of high school. Spent four years at Vanderbilt, winning the
College World Series with the Commodores in 2019. Signed to a
modest bonus for a 10th rounder, but a solid one for a college
senior.
Participated in the Fall Instructional League in 2019 as a
catcher.
Summation:
Versatile, smart player from an elite program. Could advance
quickly, but likely profiles as an organizational bat. If
everything clicks, could develop into a power-hitting bench
player capable of filling in at first base and left field.
