Scouting Report
An elite athlete, he boasts a rare mix of speed, power, a good batting eye and defensive fluidity. Has great fundamentals in the field and produces runs with both his bat and his legs. Is a bit of a free swinger, leading to strikeouts and less-than-top-tier batting averages. His all-out style has led to injuries, especially back issues that could linger over time.
Long Range Potential: Athletic but oft-injured outfielder in decline.
