Scouting Report

Assets	Swings a consistent power bat and generally hits for a good average. Hustles around the bases. Is solid with the glove and calls a good game. Can also be used at first base or as a DH.
Flaws	Despite his strong throwing arm, he isn't very accurate--letting too many base-runners steal. As a hitter, he strikes out too much. He can also be sloppy on the base-paths.
Career potential	Versatile home-run-hitting catcher.
