Scouting Report
Owned prodigious bat speed. Had the ability to play all three outfield positions, thanks to good positioning and enough speed to get by. Could also fill in at first base. Struck out too much and didn't draw a lot of walks, limiting his opportunities to knock in runs (and also limiting his on-base percentage). Had some holes in his swing.
Long Range Potential: Versatile backup and left-handed bat off the bench.
