Scouting Report
Is a heady player who can draw a lot of walks. Owns solid power too. Runs the bases well and can even steal a few bags. Can hit to all fields. Also, he spent time as a catcher earlier in his career so his bat did not catch up to his instincts in the field. Also, injuries are a factor for him. Lacks consistency at the plate.
Long Range Potential: Decent first baseman.
