Scouting Report

Assets
  • A fairly speedy switch-hitter who can hit well from both sides. He's a strong defensive infielder.
Flaws
  • Doesn't have much power at all, which makes his high strikeout totals inexcusable. Doesn't walk much, either.
Career Potential
  • Can be a solid utility infielder.
