Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has big-time power, improving plate discipline, enough speed to cover the ground in center field and steal bases. Hits lefties as well as right-handers.
Flaws
  • Needs to be able to handle the pressures of being a much-ballyhooed position player prospect. Is still an inconsistent defender in the outfield.
Career Potential
  • A potential five-tool talent in center field.
