Released (March 2022)

Physical Description: Large frame. Strong. Thick lower half. No remaining projection.

Hit: Starts vertical and slightly closed. Short leg lift timing device. Below-average bat speed. Swing is on the stiff side and long. Lot of swing-and-miss in his game. Will take a walk, but is on the aggressive side. Potential well below-average hit tool at best.

Power: Average raw power. Strength-based power in his swing. Struggles to tap into his raw power, as his swing lacks loft and he hits too many balls on the ground. Fringe-average game power.

Run: Below-average speed. Actually moves pretty well for someone his size.

Field: Fringe-average defensive profile. Lack of range limits him to a corner outfield profile.

Arm: Average arm strength.

Career Notes: Participated in the Fall Instructional League in 2019.

Summation: Potential low minors depth option. Will need significant improvement offensively to succeed against more advanced pitching.
