Scouting Report
Has monster power and pretty decent plate patience, too. Owns a very strong arm for the hot corner and is generally a sound defender. Can also play other positions, which adds value in MLB. Strikes out way too much, so he will need to curb his penchant for swinging and missing in order to maximize output.
Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile corner infielder.
