Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has an above-average power bat for a third-sacker. Is very, very clutch in pressure situations. Owns a very reliable glove at the hot corner.
Flaws
  • Very streaky at the dish. Seems to swing at everything, leading to a low on-base percentage and batting average. Has little to no speed on the bases.
Career Potential
  • Strong all-around third baseman.
