Scouting Report

AssetsShows incredible versatility defensively. A smart and pure hitter with a great eye, he's consistent and highly productive with the bat, spraying line drives all over the field. Is pretty athletic and a good base-runner.
FlawsHas become a little bit more injury-prone with age. Has always made his share of errors defensively, no matter the position. Would be an even better hitter if he took more walks.
Career potentialSuperb veteran contact hitter with outstanding versatility.
