Scouting Report

Assets
  • Plays hard, runs hard around the bases and also in the outfield. Has occasional power and hits left-handed pitching very well.
Flaws
  • Doesn't hit consistently well enough to play every day. Swings a little too freely and isn't to be counted on with runners in scoring position.
Career Potential
  • A solid platoon or fourth outfielder.
