  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Physical Description: Above-average athlete with some remaining projection. Needs to add strength.

Hit: Starts square and utilizes a leg kick timing device. Wide base. Fluid swing with good separation. Quick hands. Decent approach. Rarely chases and sees a lot of pitches. Pitch recognition needs work, but excels against fastballs. Potential average hit tool.

Power: Hits the ball hard, but that has not translated to over-the-fence power yet. Swing is more designed for hard contact in the gaps right now.

Run: Average speed.
  Field: Saw significant time at first base in 2022, but likely in deference to a crowded FCL outfield.

Arm: Plus arm. Plenty of arm for right field, where it is a deterrent for baserunners.

Career Notes: Converted from pitcher shortly before signing. Selected by Toronto in the minor league phase of the 2023 Rule 5 Draft

Summation: Intriguing player who has struggled to stay healthy, but shows upside at the plate and in the field. Hit over power right now, but has a projectable frame and solid defensive ability.
