Scouting Report

Assets
  • A pure hitter, he has decent power that can rap out liners from line to line. Can play either first base or left field. Mashes lefties.
Flaws
  • A former catcher, he's still learning how to play the field and may be best suited for a DH role. His plate discipline is inconsistent.
Career Potential
  • A solid DH or platoon player in the NL.
