Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a dead-pull hitter with decent power. Has a smart approach at the plate. Defensively, he has a strong arm and is improving his game-caling skills.
Flaws
  • Could stand to improve his walk/strikeout ratio in order to become a better hitter. Offensive expectations now appear to be too elevated.
Career Potential
  • A decent backup or platoon catcher.
