Physical Description
Large, broad frame w/ good growth potential. Young face, still physically immature, softness through the middle that will turn to muscle.
Mechanical Notes
Rhythmic abbreviated SWU; tall gather, strong lines to the plate, short+closed stride pulls him slightly off-line at times. Moderate effort through finish that he can iron out w/ strength gains. Compact, in-line arm-circle into quick, fluid 3/4 slot. Starter look.

Overall Summary
Emerging prospect in 2019, ingredients of #3/#4 lefty rotation piece if he can cut down the walks. Age, proximity, and projection required across the board add risk.
