Secondary RHP, working exclusively from the stretch and hands set at the belt. High 3/4 arm action and leverages the ball downhill. True fastball up to 81 mph and went to his plus, changeup that had nice deception and action in the low-70s. Went three hitless innings in live game action. Also showed tighter spinning breaking ball with 11-5 action. Right handed hitter, working from an open base and flatter handset.
