Scouting Report
Was a talented hitter with good power in his bat at all levels. Displayed a lot of versatility defensively (he could play first base, either outfield corner and even some second base in MLB). Could really mash left-handed pitching and be used off the bench in key spots. Swung the bat a bit too freely when at the dish and lacked a consistent approach (in particular against right-handed pitching). His lack of overall consistency somewhat limited his playing time at the highest level.
Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile right-handed hitter.
