Scouting Report

Assets
  • His bat has the potential to explode on occasion. Displays monster power and the ability to light up right-handed pitching.
Flaws
  • Could stand to take more bases on balls. Has very little speed on the bases. Can't hit lefties as well as righties, which is a concern.
Career Potential
  • An average first baseman.
