Scouting Report
Mashes left-handed pitching. Is a good athlete with an impressive combination of speed and power. Consistently cranks out doubles when he is on his game. Has a lot of range in the outfield and can play all three positions. Strikes out far too much and has some major holes in his swing (contributing to low batting averages). Does not get on base enough to make great use of his speed. Lacks consistency. Struggles against right-handers.
Long Range Potential: Streaky, versatile platoon outfielder.
