2004 Report
2005 Update:
Older player who grows on you. Gd baseball body and athleticism. Developed lower 1/2. Strong
hds and wrists. Simple swing. Open setup @ plate. high loose hds. Heavy top hd leads to lots of
GB's. Bars to get hds back gets long from there. Loose. Likes ball @ eye level. Swings thru too
many pitches, may have hard time seeing ball @ times. Sprays balls to all fields. Below avg raw
power. Runs tick above avg and gives gd 90 every time. Arm is fringy avg, looks short on ball in
hole. Solid actions to play up middle. Moves through throws well and transfer is quick. Looks
lost @ times on pop ups. Range below avg despite running spd. Gamer who plays very hard.
Looks like he'll hit enuf to be worth keeping around @ org level. Should get a shot @ AA level
next yr.
