Physical Description: Average
height, lean frame with long legs and a high waist. Some
projection remaining.
Mechanics: Throws
from a three-quarters arm slot. Starts on the third base side of
the rubber. Uses a stiff, jerky delivery with lots of moving
parts and throws across his body, which all create deception but
hinder his control and command.
Fastball:
88-90 mph, Tops out at 91 mph. Struggles to control the pitch.
Will use sparingly in some outings in favor of cutter. Average
velocity, but pitch will play below that due to lack of command
and control. Will show some arm-side run. Below-average
potential.
Cutter: 86-88 mph. Primary
pitch. Short, horizontal movement. Has feel and confidence in
the pitch. Most effective against righties, when he locates it
in on their hands. Average potential offering.

Slider: 79-82 mph. Slurvy with 1-to-7 shape.
Will show some depth on occasion. Does not consistently snap it
off. Projects as a below-average offering.
Career
Notes: Pitched briefly for Hyannis in the Cape
Cod League in 2016, throwing 4.2 innings in relief. Did not
pitch in 2022 after undergoing Tommy John surgery on or about
May 3.
Summation: Projects as an
organizational middle reliever. Cutter is an intriguing pitch,
but lacks another pitch to complement it. Left-handedness gives
him an advantage and should be able to stick around due to
strike-throwing ability.
