  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Physical Description: Undersized frame with some remaining projection. Quick-twitch athlete.

Hit: Starts slightly closed with his hands by his head. Brief leg kick timing device. Short, quick swing. Contract-oriented approach.

Power: Minimal power projection. Combination of small frame and swing limit power potential.

Run: Plus speed.

Field: Solid defensive profile in either the infield or outfield. Splits his time between second base and all three outfield positions, and can play third base in a pinch.

Arm: Average arm strength.
  Career Notes: Sister, Shenita, plays college softball. Planned to play at New Mexico Junior College, but transferred to Wharton Junior College for his freshman year when NMJC was not going to play the 2021 season due to COVID-19. Transferred back to NMJC for his sophomore season before transferring to Texas A&M for his junior season. 2024 season ended in mid-August due to a torn labrum suffered while dislocating his shoulder in a game, undergoing surgery in early September. In first spring training game after rehabbing the injury in late March 2025, dislocated a bone in his left wrist running into an outfield wall, opening the 2025 season on the 60-day injured list.

Summation: Athletic, defense-first profile. Unclear how much he will hit, but brings a speed/defense combination with defensive versatility.

Note: This page will be updated with a complete scouting report after the scouting team has seen the player in person.
