Scouting Report

Assets
  • A leader who handles pitchers very well. A disciplined switch-hitter, he shows occasional power and decent run production.
Flaws
  • Tends to fade at the plate in the second half if he sees too much action in the early months. Has little power against southpaws.
Career Potential
  • A reliable catcher that is at his best in a platoon.
