Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has elite power and a very good batting eye. Over the years, he has learned to take a walk and has shown clutch ability driving runners in.
Flaws
  • He's not exactly a gold-glove caliber first baseman. Like most first sackers, he lacks mobility and is slow on the bases.
Career Potential
  • An above-average slugging first baseman.
