Mathis is a 6-foot-1, 210-pound righthander and corner infielder who enjoyed a breakout 2023 sophomore season with College of Charleston, and continued his high-level two-way performance with Cotuit in the Cape Cod League. His .330/.439/.575 slash line in the spring was an improvement across the board on his freshman effort, and he added nine home runs and posted a 3.45 ERA over 60 innings and 10 starts on the mound. He was second in the Cape with 11 home runs and led the league with a .667 slugging percentage and struck out 23 batters in 20.1 innings, with just five walks. Mathis is a fastball hitter at the plate who has handled velocity and shows above-average power to the pull side, though he has also shown an ability to drive the ball hard to all fields and impressed with his ability to go the other way on outer third pitches in the Cape. His batted ball data and contact rates are excellent, which will excite more analytically-inclined scouting departments. On the mound, Mathis primarily pitches off a low-90s fastball that has been up to 96 and a mid-70s curveball with two-plane movement and hard downward depth at its best. He will also mix in a harder slider in the mid 80s with short cutting action, as well as a mid-80s changeup that he might have the least feel for of his repertoire.
