Scouting Report

AssetsOwns an outstanding arm for the shortstop position, plus a lot of upside with the glove. His quickness is an asset both on defense and offense, and he has good strike-zone discipline as well.
FlawsDoesn't have much pop in his bat at all, so the jury is out on whether he'll be able to hit enough to play every day at the big-league level. Also needs to cut down on his errors and refine his defense.
Career potentialSlick infielder with some upside.
