Scouting Report
& Links |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
Physical Description:
Medium, athletic frame. No remaining projection.
Hit:
Spray hitter, below-to-fringe-average bat . Discplined approach,
works the count. Could stand to be more aggressive. Does not
impact the ball enough.
Power: Below-to-fringe-average power. Will clear the fences on occasion. Showed
some pop early in his minor league career but that did not
translate to higher levels.
Run:
Average speed. Not a big stolen base threat.
Field: Average-to-better defender at shortstop, also able
to play the other three positions in the infield adequately.
|
|
Arm:
Average arm strength.
Career Notes:
Well-regarded signing out ouf Taiwan. Was high on the Indians'
prospect rankings in 2014-16. Has not impressed with the bat
during major league opportunities with Cleveland, Pittsburgh,
Tampa Bay, or Boston. Played for Chinese Taipei in the 2023 WBC,
was named the MVP of Pool A.
Summation:
Emergency up-and-down infielder. Reliable defender who can fill in
an infield role in the event of injuries.
