Scouting Report
Is a quality hitter at lower levels with a good eye and approach at the plate. Has improved his defensive work behind the plate in a big way. Has good size and durability. Needs to improve his power-hitting stroke in order to maximize production at the big-league level. Also needs to throw out more runners attempting to steal bases.
Long Range Potential: Backup catcher.
