Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is very athletic for a catcher. He's also intense and focused at the plate. Hits for average, while taking a lot of bases on balls. Can steal double-digit bags. Calls a great game behind the dish and is a leader.
Flaws
  • Can be streaky at the plate and behind it (especially in terms of home-run power and when trying to throw out base-stealers). Could be a more efficient base-runner.
Career Potential
  • Solid all-around catcher.
