Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a quick line-drive bat from both sides of the plate, plus pretty good base-stealing speed and the versatility to play all over the infield.
Flaws
  • His defense is questionable at best, and his small frame doesn't generate a lot of home-run power. Must improve his walk/strikeout ratio.
Career Potential
  • A reserve infielder.
