Scouting Report
| Assets |
Teahen has slowly shown more power as he's risen through the system. He can lay off bad pitches and produce with runners in scoring position, while fielding well at the hot corner.
|
|---|
| Flaws |
While his power has improved significantly, he still can find the big swing against southpaws. Could stand to cut down the strikeouts.
