Scouting Report
Assets
Extremely patient at the plate and has solid power. Has the speed and instincts to lead off. Turns it up a notch with runners on base. Versatile with the mitt.
Flaws
A classic late bloomer. Despite his good patience he hasn't batted for a very good average over his career. His all-out style can lead to injuries.
Career potential
Quality leadoff man and starting infielder.
