Scouting Report

Assets
  • Drives the ball to the gaps and can rake against right-handed pitching. Is a proven commodity with runners in scoring position, even as a pinch-hitter.
Flaws
  • Doesn't have the power associated with the hot corner at the big-league level. Has trouble with breaking stuff. Is not a natural with the glove.
Career Potential
  • A great pinch-hitter or below-average starter.
