Scouting Report
& Links |
|
|

| |
|
|
|
|

Physical Description:
Undersized, very athletic.
Hit: Short,
compact swing. Solid pitch recognition and knowledge of the
strike zone. Has feel at the plate and contact skills. Will
strike out some and there are questions about how his hit tool
will play against more advanced pitching. Potential
fringe-average hit tool.
Power:
Below-average raw power. Not a major part of his game. Swing is
designed to go gap-to-gap, rather than for over-the-fence power.
Well-below-average power potential.
Run:
Plus-plus speed. Solid baserunning instincts. Seems to have
recovered fully from his Achilles injury.
Field:
Soft hands and smooth actions in the field. Not a standout
defender, but steady enough and playable at shortstop. Potential
average defender.
|
|
Arm:
Fringe-average arm for shortstop, but makes up for it with a
quick release. Arm could be better suited long-term for second
base or the outfield.
Career Notes:
Missed his entire junior season at Texas due to a ruptured
Achilles tendon. Spent time with an independent team in Texas
coached by Roger Clemens during the lost 2020 season. Impressed scouts during 2020
Fall Instructs. Did not make his affiliated debut until 2021. Had the
fifth-most stolen bases and third-most triples in
all of the minor leagues in 2021. Participated in 2022 Winter
Warm-Up. Received a non-roster invitation to MLB spring training
in 2022.
Summation:
Relatively high floor. Potential backup infielder type who is
carried by his speed and defensive versatility. Does not have the
highest ceiling unless his offensive production improves, due to lack
of power and average-at-best hit tool. Type of player who could
stick around at the major league level for a long-time in the
right role.
Note: This page will be updated with a
complete scouting report after the scouting team has seen the
player in person.
