Scouting Report

Assets
  • Boasts prodigious power and solid patience at the plate. Is an ideal target at first base (6-4, 220 pounds and left-handed). Switch-hitting adds to his overall value.
Flaws
  • At times, he's too patient at the dish and will place himself in bad hitters' counts. That leads to too many strikeouts as a result.
Career Potential
  • Switch-hitting first baseman with big upside.
  • Awards
