Scouting Report

Assets
  • He's a very strong fielder at first base. At the plate he can give lefties a beating and wields some power in his bat.
Flaws
  • He's prone to the big whiff, falling into ruts where he swings too freely.
Career Potential
  • Not consistent enough for everyday play, but a good bat off the bench.
