Scouting Report
Could mash right-handed pitching but also hold his own against southpaws most of the time. Could play all three outfield positions and was a good hitter in the clutch. Had trouble with consistency at the plate, and his bad stretches were lengthy and would often hurt his team. Didn't take full advantage of his athleticism when on base.
Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile outfielder.
