Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a great contact hitter that doesn't strike out often. Has power to the gaps and good instincts on both sides of the ball. Locks in on left-handed pitching.
Flaws
  • Could stand to be a little more selective at the dish for a hitter without a lot of pop in his bat. Injuries have played a big role in his pro career. Failed as a corner infielder.
Career Potential
  • A consistent .300-hitting infielder.
