Scouting Report
Is incredibly versatile and can be used all over the field. Has pretty decent pop in his bat, especially for a catcher (or middle infielder). Can also steal a few bases and hit for a solid average in the minor leagues. Is a bit stiff in terms of his glove work, so he lacks the fluidity to be a quality defender in Major League Baseball. Is relatively new to catching and rather raw behind the dish and lacks polish, overall.
Long Range Potential: Versatile catcher.
