Scouting Report
Has great power and plenty of plate coverage, which adds to his potential with the stick. His quick, soft hands stand out as attributes. Also boasts a very strong arm and plenty of positional versatility. A converted catcher, he has yet to find a position to call his own in Major League Baseball. Needs to play with more consistency and be a little more selective at the dish. Injuries can be an issue here.
Long Range Potential: Talented, versatile and athletic power hitter.
