Scouting Report
Has a solid left-handed swing with good power, run-producing skills and sound fundamentals. Can play either corner outfield position, as well as first base. Draws plenty of walks. Does not hit left-handed pitching with regularity in Major League Baseball. In order to thrive at the highest level, he needs to keep his strikeouts in check. Lacks consistency in MLB.
Long Range Potential: Versatile, power-hitting left-handed bat.
