Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is still capable defensively and has added versatility late in his career; can play all over the infield. At the plate, he's a very disciplined hitter, great bunter and sneaky base-runner.
Flaws
  • Is no longer capable of playing every day. Never had power and his speed isn't what it used to be, either.
Career Potential
  • Great defensive infielder and future Hall-of-Famer.
