Nice glove work, presenting ball well. Secondary 1B, moving well through his angles and nice feel around the bag. Glove work was a bit firm and should get better with reps.

Hand driven swing starting from tight hand load and showed juice when he opened it up. Young athlete with good projection and is an elite performer in the classroom.
