Scouting Report

Assets
  • His fielding is above average and his arm strength makes opposing runners hesitate on the base paths. Green has a sweet line-drive stroke with occasional power.
Flaws
  • He may get too down on himself for his own good when he's slumping. Recent struggles, which include a drastic loss in power, have a lot to do with an inability to hit lefties.
Career Potential
  • Solid corner-outfield bat.
