Scouting Report
A good athlete, he has an electric bat and decent pop at the plate. Will take a walk and does not strike out too much. Has pretty good range in the infield and can play several positions. Lacks concentration on the field, which can at times lead to boneheaded mistakes on the bases and high error totals in the field. Also, has lacked maturity at times. Has limited power.
Long Range Potential: Versatile, veteran infielder.
