Scouting Report
Has excellent plate discipline and he works counts with aplomb (creating a ton of opportunities to get on base via the walk). Can play shortstop in a pinch, as well as second base. Does not have enough range or arm strength to play every day at shortstop in Major League Baseball. Also, he lacks the power and speed to be a big offensive contributor in MLB.
Long Range Potential: Depth infielder.
