Scouting Report

Assets
  • Boasts great hustle and is a strong base-runner. He'll slap the ball into the gaps for extra bases and is pretty good in the clutch.
Flaws
  • Strikes out more than you'd like to see from a leadoff man and also struggles against southpaws. Lacks consistency on offense.
Career Potential
  • A solid leadoff man best suited for left field.
