Scouting Report

Assets
  • Speed and power: a legitimate 20-20 threat. Knows how to cash in runners in scoring position.
Flaws
  • Though he has the above tools, he's had trouble adjusting to big-league pitching and hasn't shown them yet. He tends to be overaggressive at the plate, striking out too much and not hanging in for a base on balls.
Career Potential
  • His time to prove himself has run out.
