Scouting Report

Assets
  • Defense is where he really shines. He has phenomenal range and soft hands. At the plate, he has surprising gap power for his size and can burn up the base paths.
Flaws
  • He tends to be too eager at the plate and often this backfires and he ends up swinging at pitches he shouldn't. As a result, the strikeouts pile up and he hits easy grounders or pop-ups.
Career Potential
  • His star potential has faded; he's now a decent semi-regular infielder.
