Primary outfielder on defense, works behind and through the ball with good fundamental actions and a quick exchange and release, developing arm strength and makes accurate throws due to his fundamental work before throwing. Also played some first base. Took a turn on the mound, works from the stretch with a basic leg lift delivery, compact arm circle to a 3/4's arm slot. Fastball topped out at 71 mph, got cutting action on virtually every fastball coming across the ball. Also threw a soft slider.
