Jordan is a coachable LHP/OF prospect who worked hard on his skills during the Cape Cod Select Training & Competition. On the mound, Jordan operates with a three pitch mix with his fastball topping out at 73mph with tailing action. Breaking ball sits from 61-63mph with sharp 1-7 break. Changeup sits from 65-66mph as he throws with deceptive arm speed. Long tossing can help Jordan build up his arm strength. In the field, Jordan shows active footwork and is agile moving to the ball. He gets into an athletic position and fields the ball out in front of his body. His exchange is clean and he gains ground well on his throws, keeping them accurate/strong through his target. Jordan can throw out more baserunners by getting rid of the ball quicker. At the plate, this LHH sets up in an athletic stance with comfortable hands. He is fluid to load and works through a smooth swing, producing strong line drives. Striding square toward the pitcher can help Jordan create more consistent contact. With three more years to develop, Jordan has the time and potential to further build upon his skills on the field.

Jordan is an athletic and talented 2024 2-way prospect that was eager to learn. In the OF, Jordan starts in an athletic position, he reads the ball off the bat, and works behind the ball. He's on time with his prep step and anticipates the ball off the bat. He needs to continue to build arm strength and improve his first step to the ball. At the plate, Jordan starts in an athletic stance, loads his hands back into the drive position and gets his front foot down on time. He has a good approach and creates backside drive with his lower half. He needs to continue to attack the inside part of the ball, quiet his head, and get his front foot down on time. On the bump, Jordan has good mound presence and repeats his delivery north to south. He gathers over the rubber, separates on time, and works over the front side. He commands his fastball down in the zone and creates run on his changeup. Jordan will continue to improve with experience and we hope to see his progress in the future.
