Scouting Report

Assets
  • A real old-schooler who plays all out. Hits for power and steals bases, and hustles non-stop on defense and on the basepaths. Is clutch and a leader.
Flaws
  • A bit of a free-swinger, he runs hot and cold. With his speed and power, he should draw more walks. His all-out style contributes to his tendency to get injured.
Career Potential
  • Versatile outfielder.
