Comments:
Versatile athlete who doesn't profile. May have best body in league. Chiseled frame. Strong
chest with big shoulders angles down to narrow waist. Tight lower 1/2. Mistake hitter. Long
swing. Big leg kick, bars badly. Doesn't get front ft down in time which leads to an excessiv.
arms swing that fails to take advantage of his powerful lower body. Poor timing, gets out on his
front ft. often. Raw batspd creates some whip but swing issues make it hard for him to consis.
sq. ball up. Heavy top hand, dead pull approach. Strong enuf to go other way but shows
minimal interest. Near avg raw power doesn't show up in games. Power doesn't profile at
upper levels and he's not showing much right now. Controls strike zone well-prob at expense
of some additional power-soft .300.  Avg arm strength is playable @ any position. Quick
reactive hds allow him to play adeq. corner INF. Occ. spaces out, dropped a routine FB and
looks lost at times on very routine balls. Has some org. value with ability to play multiple
positions and have quality AB's. Should move to AA next yr based on nice season he's had but
expect offensive output to resemble yrs past more closely as pitchers begin to attack holes
with more precision.
