Scouting Report

Assets
  • A good overall athlete. A switch-hitter who gets a good swing on the ball with gap power. Has above-average speed on the bases and in the field and is an active and efficient base-stealer. Hustles.
Flaws
  • Can be streaky. Strikes out too much for a guy without a lot of power. Could take more walks. Doesn't have much of an arm in the outfield.
Career Potential
  • Solid all-round outfielder with some leadoff ability.
