Scouting Report

Assets
  • Speed is his greatest asset. When he's at his best, he's setting the table at the top of the batting order for the big boppers.
Flaws
  • Strikes out too much for a hitter with modest power potential. Needs more work on his concentration when in the field, since he commits too many errors.
Career Potential
  • A backup middle infielder.
