Scouting Report

Assets
  • The stocky infielder is a consistent line-drive hitter with good instincts and tools on defense--particularly at second base.
Flaws
  • At 5-9, his size prevents him from generating plus power at all levels. Can also be overly aggressive at the plate.
Career Potential
  • A decent utility infielder.
