Scouting Report
: Veteran outfielder. Filled-out mid-sized athletic frame. Below-average hit tool, fringe-average power. Has consistently been about a .235 hitter when given the chance at the major league level. Still has above-average to plus speed in his 30s. Smart, agile base stealer. Capable of playing all three positions in the outfield, best suited for center field due to his range. Gets decent jumps. Above-average arm. Boston is his eighth organization, which puts him squarely in journeyman status. Solid Triple-A injury depth. Could serve as a 4th or 5th outfielder for a second division team.
