Primary third baseman on defense, has good hands to both sides and fields the ball cleanly with good lower half balance, compact arm action with developing carry on his throws. Also took a turn on the mound, works from the stretch with a short crossfire stride out front, long arm takeaway in back, extended 3/4's arm slot.
