Scouting Report

AssetsA gifted natural hitter, he has supreme focus at the plate, a great eye and quick wrists. Generates a lot of bat-speed with a powerful build and a smooth swing. Can play first and third base.
FlawsDespite his good athleticism, he's not very mobile in the field or on the bases. Needs to cut down on his strikeouts in order to maximize his hitting potential.
Career potentialVersatile corner infielder with a little upside.
