Scouting Report

Assets	Plays some phenomenal defense at third base and he's a fantastic pure hitter, able to consistently line the ball to the gaps with power.
Flaws	The only area that he doesn't excel at is the running game. Can become an even better hitter if he improves his walk/strikeout ratio.
Career potential	Perennial all-star third baseman.
