Scouting Report
Is a terrific athlete who can cover enough ground to play center field, and also to steal bases in the bigs. Has excellent pitch recognition skills and will draw walks. His power is burgeoning, too. Needs to ensure that he will not lose any of his athleticism as he bulks up to become more of a home-run threat. Must also prove he can handle left-haned pitching with authority at the big-league level.
Long Range Potential: Talented, athletic outfielder with good upside.
