I don't remember who said it, but someone said he might have been the best high school bat to make it to campus. He's a ton of fun to watch.

He reminds me a little of Duplantis, with maybe a tad more pop (?). He sprays the ball well and is just a good hitter.

Obviously not trying to compare him to two goats but he does put off Duplantis and Morgan vibes from the left side. Uses the whole field. Professional at bats. He is a hard out. They both came in as true freshman and had really good seasons. I think in the end he is going to end up having more power than both. I’m just really glad to have him.

What’s crazy is his high stats weren’t crazy. Only 3 career HRs, not a lot of at bats. I’m sure weather played into that some.

He’s going to have a ton more power than Duplantis when he fills out. He’s listed at 6’2’’ 194. When he gets in that 215 range, he’ll be a 15-18 HR guy.
