Assets: | Has big-time power to all fields, thanks largely to an impressive frame, some plate discipline and a decent eye at the plate. Is also an adept fielder at first base. Can also play at the hot corner. |
Flaws: | Injuries can be, and have been, an issue with him. Strikes out too much, so he could stand to shorten up his swing a little bit, especially in critical situations and when he is behind in the count. |
Career Potential: | Excellent corner infielder and run producer. |
