Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has the kind of swing that makes him one of the top slugging third basemen in the majors, but he also has a good eye at the plate as well.
Flaws
  • Shoulder concerns have now been replaced by a chronic foot problem, which have curtailed his career. Strikes out a ton. Steroid talk clouds his future.
Career Potential
  • A Silver Slugger candidate at third, when healthy.
