Scouting Report

Assets
  • Hits left-handed pitching very well. Can come off the bench to deliver hits. Plays the game the right way. Has power. Can play all three outfield positions.
Flaws
  • Doesn't hit consistently well enough to play every day. Swings a little too freely, so he could stand to improve his walk/strikeout ratio.
Career Potential
  • Solid backup outfielder and bat off the bench.
  • Awards
