Scouting Report

Assets
  • An incredible athlete and one of the most intense players in baseball history. Incredibly selective at the plate, letting him either get on base or get his pitch. When he gets his pitch he often takes it out of the park. Earlier in his career, a top base-stealer and a Gold Glove left fielder.
Flaws
  • One of the most controversial figures in baseball history. Has a long-term background of friction with the media and in the clubhouse. His speed has dwindled over the years.
Career Potential
  • Elite hitter.
