Has a sweet swing. Drives the ball all over the outfield with great power for an infielder. Works hard at his game, especially on defense. Is a leader by example. Is injury-prone. Defense is the weakest part of his game, though he works hard to improve it. At the plate, he has a few more struggles against southpaws. | |
Long Range Potential: | Veteran infielder in decline. |
