Personal
With 3 years of European baseball experience in 2 countries, I have a created a track record of consistency and effectiveness. Career wise, I have missed only one start and accumulated a 1.97 ERA, .95 WHIP and 3.69 to 1 K/BB ratio over 260 innings of pitching. I have been able to accomplish these numbers utilizing 4 different pitches and having strong defenses behind me. My fastball ranges from 88-91 mph with a confirmed high of 94 mph at Prague Baseball Week 2022, curveball 70-78 mph, slider 81-86 mph, and sinker 81-84 mph.
Gaining additional experience as a manager or coach will play a key role in identifying my next European organization. In Europe, I managed my 2. Germany Bundesliga club to a Southeast Division Championship in year 1 and second place finish in year 2. As the pitching coach for my Belgium club, I stressed the importance of preparation and game situational awareness. I take pride in sharing with others what I have learned from the coaches I have played for as well as the American and European Baseball Coaches Associations.
During my four years of collegiate baseball, I had the opportunity to both start and relieve. My summers were spent playing in the Ban Johnson Collegiate Summer Baseball League where I was named an All-Star for 3 years. In 2018, I was chosen as a starting pitcher for the All-Star game and a finalist for League Pitcher of the Year.
Off the field, I have conducted camps and represented my teams in the community.
