| Hit | 40 | 50 | Finding approach; 1st series was anxious, expanding; better 2nd look, able to track and lay-off spin; doesn't barrel yet. Average barrel-feel, will square FBs gap-to-gap. Loose, handsy swing with plus batspeed is solid; better if he can keep his weight back to drive offspeed. Trust the athlete. |

Overall Summary
Five average or above-average tools in CF give ceiling of above-avg everyday player. There is developmental risk in the projection of the hit tool, but player projects to impact game in many facets.
