Scouting Report
Has good pop in his bat, and can be a strong offensive hitter with both power and speed. His bat speed enables him to make solid contact. Can play all over the field, which adds to his overall value in MLB. Needs to improve his walk/strikeout ratio in order to thrive in the big leagues, since he tends to chase pitches from time to time. His glove is not good enough to stand alone, so he must continue to hit.
Long Range Potential: Versatile, offensive bat.
