Scouting Report

Assets
  • A phenomenal athlete and five-tool guy. Has a rare mix of size, wheels, and raw natural bat-speed. Also has some versatility with the glove.
Flaws
  • Has shown he can sometimes lose focus (at the plate, on the basepaths, and in the field). Needs to keep working on fundamentals, and on consistency.
Career Potential
  • A superstar outfielder, if he stays focused.
