Scouting Report
A very good defender, he can play all over the infield with aplomb. Is a quality contact hitter who owns good strike-zone judgment and excellent bat control. Does not strike out much and can also steal bases. Does not have much in the way of home-run power and is not an elite speedster, either. Therefore, he may not have enough of an offensive game to play every day in the big leagues over the long haul.
Long Range Potential: Solid, contact-hitting infielder with some upside.
