Scouting Report
Has game-changing speed and base-stealing acumen, so he is a constant menace to opposing pitchers. Also uses his speed to cover plenty of ground in center field. Is adept at setting the table. Does not have much in the way of home-run power, and he is quite inconsistent in terms of hitting for average as well. Therefore, he needs to significantly improve with the bat to play every day.
Long Range Potential: Speedy outfielder.
