Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a terrific outfielder and can be an excellent defensive replacement in the late innings. He's also quick enough to be used as a pinch-runner.
Flaws
  • He has very little power and a limited bat, overall. Big-time fastballs can give him a hard time at the plate. Lacks consistency.
Career Potential
  • Solid defensive outfielder in reserve.
