Scouting Report
Is an excellent contact hitter who boasts switch-hitting ability, doubles power and an occasional home-run stroke. Doesn't strike out a lot. Can also play several positions. Doesn't use his speed enough on the base-paths to distract opposing pitchers, and generally lacks base-stealing acumen at the big-league level. Can be injury-prone.
Long Range Potential: Veteran, contact-hitting infielder.
