Physical Description
Lithe, wiry, double-plus athlete; loose actions, still has some projection without losing speed.
Swing Mechanics
Narrow, slightly open stance with low hands active pre-swing. Toe-tap to short stride, deep high load adds swing length and some loft, some barrel drag. Bat-speed compensates for length.

| Tool | Present | Future | Comments |
| Hit | 30 | 30 | Violent swing; 20 approach; hard contact when he makes it. Expands, not selective in zone, pull-heavy approach exposes away. Can stay back on spin but swing violence exposes him on edges and out of zone. Doesn't show feel to project approach. Present .200/Future .220 hitter w low obp. |

| Game Power | 45 | 55 | Barrel-feel and hand eye coordination to do damage on pitches in zone. Over the fence power pullside-to-CF; legs will add XBHs in gaps. Hit two absolute bombs in game looks. Flashed selectivity against lower quality spin; continued reps and athletic ability to find barrel project to get to power in games. |

Overall Summary
Surefire major leaguer on raw tools alone and defensive value. Major upside but does not have approach to feature as everyday player at MLB. Player will be exposed by higher quality command and spin; will run into mistakes, but it comes with low on-base and high K-rate. Profiles as a toolsy 4th outfielder.
