Scouting Report

Assets
  • Lee can scoop balls with ease. Possessing a great first step, he'll surprise the defense by turning on his running game now and then. Though he has merely above-average power, he knows how to take advantage of runners in scoring position.
Flaws
  • Lee seems to really come apart when asked to produce in clutch situations. He has trouble driving the ball off pitchers with hard heat and fizzles in the second half.
Career Potential
  • A borderline regular first baseman.
