Scouting Report

Assets
  • Fantastically athletic with great size and power, he has few peers defensively in right field, where he rarely makes a mistake and regularly throws out runners. Has shown the ability to hit for good power and average.
Flaws
  • Lacks patience at the plate in a big way, leading to streakiness and a high strikeout total. Isn't an efficient base-runner and doesn't make enough use of his speed.
Career Potential
  • Inconsistent outfielder with natural ability.
