Scouting Report

Assets
  • Larson's bat is clearly his best asset, particularly in the power department. When he's in a groove, he'll also hit for strong average.
Flaws
  • Though he hits it hard when he makes contact, his plate discipline has much to be desired, resulting in a lopsided walks-to-strikeouts ratio.
Career Potential
  • Hasn't shown the goods to stick in the majors.
