Scouting Report
Has speed to burn, which he translates into elite defensive play in center field and great stolen-base numbers. Has developed into a solid hitter for average and can score a lot of runs. Posts massive strikeout numbers for a player who has little power; would benefit a lot from a different approach at the dish. Despite all his free swinging, he is also not a great RBI threat.
Long Range Potential: Speedy veteran outfielder.
