Scouting Report
Can play either corner infield position, which adds to his overall value to a team in MLB. Is a solid hitter for average. Usually makes consistent contact and keeps his strikeouts down. Does not have ideal home-run power for an everyday corner infielder, so he may be reduced to a bench role for the majority of his career at the highest level. His throwing arm is only average.
Long Range Potential: Backup corner infielder.
