A bit of a late bloomer considering his age, but currently posting .279 / .357 / .882 at A Fredricksburg. He did not play in the minors in 2024.

I assume he gets moved up soon.

DHed today for the FredNats when I saw them in Salem.  Runs better than I expected for a 25-year-old DHing in A-ball and hit the ball reasonably well off decent ABs.  Not an actual prospect, but quite possibly a useful org guy.
