Scouting Report

Assets
  • He's a good, consistent hitter with power to right field and has patience at the plate. He runs the bases with intelligence and fields the ball with a very strong arm from third.
Flaws
  • Relies too much on pulling the ball. As a result, when he doesn't hit it out to right, he hits easy grounders to first and second. Has been injury-prone.
Career Potential
  • Above-average third baseman when healthy.
