Scouting Report:
Athletic and well-built, Sumoza signed for a big bonus out of Venezuela in mid-2004.
Gifted athlete, still very raw. Shows the potential to be a five-tool player, but needs a lot of refinement. High power potential.
Above average speed. Strikes out too much, still has some holes in
his swing. Hits
from a slightly open stance. Keeps his hands around
his helmet. Swing tends to get a bit too long and he can jam himself.
In the field, Sumoza has above average range, a passable glove, and a
decent
arm. Overall, he has a ton of potential, but still a long way
to go.
