Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a very good hitter with the ability to knock in runs. Has enough versatility to both in the infield and outfield. Can pinch hit effectively.
Flaws
  • Strikes out way too much for a player with modest home-run potential at the big-league level. Doesn't play well enough defensively at any position.
Career Potential
  • A quality bat off the bench.
