Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has elite speed and uses it to leg out infield singles (often on bunts) and covering ground in the outfield. He's very aggressive on the bases.
Flaws
  • For a leadoff hitter he doesn't make enough contact or take enough walks. Strikes out too much for a guy with very little power. Has a weak arm.
Career Potential
  • An average leadoff man and outfielder.
