Ran a 7.21 second 60 yard dash. Primary second baseman, could breakdown more into gather for better fielding actions, hands are developing, longer release to a low arm angle with limited carry and developing arm strength. Also pitched, spread out start into windup, side step to a high leg lift, overhead windup with a high hand separation, long arm action up to a low ¾ slot, arm wraps through the back side, drop and drive actions but could use lower half more, stays online with a good hip turn and little effort at release, fastball is straight and around the zone, should develop an offspeed pitch for added effectiveness. Lefthanded hitter, slightly open and upright stance with a high hand set and a high back elbow, small leg lift trigger, could utilize hand load to get them going into the point of contact, downhill swing plane, long finish, mostly opposite field contact.
