Mechanical Notes
Funky delivery that hides the ball and gives RHH a tough look. Deceptive arm-circle and slinging sidearm slot show the ball late.

Overall Summary
Deception-based RHR that's light on typical stuff. Ceiling is a matchup righty who faces same-side bats and comes in to get a ground ball. If his stuff proves too light to be reliable at ML level, more of a 4A/up-and-down type.
