Scouting Report
Is a pretty good defensive infielder, with enough range and arm strength to play on the left side of the infield (including shortstop). Can make decent contact at the dish, as well. Is not much of an offensive threat, since he lacks both home-run power and blazing speed. Therefore, he is not much of a candidate to play every day in Major League Baseball.
Long Range Potential: Depth infielder.
