  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Physical Description: Medium frame with minimal remaining projection. Could stand to get stronger.

Hit: Starts vertical and slightly closed with his hands high. Brief leg kick timing device. Makes consistent contact on pitches in the zone, but will expand on occasion. Needs to show he can hit off-speed and good velocity consistently. Lacks bat speed and has the tendency to drag through the zone resulting in a lot of contact the other way. Will take a walk. Struggles to make consistent hard contact.

Power: Well below-average raw power. Lack of strength and hard contact limits power ability.

Run: Well below-average speed. Not a major part of his game.

Field: Has played both first and third base in pro ball. Profiles best at first base. Lacks range at third and hands are average at best.
   Arm: Fringe-average arm strength. Arm profiles best at first base.

Career Notes: Son of Red Sox legend and MLB Hall-of-Famer David Ortiz. Once played summer baseball for the Brockton Rox with the sons of Manny Ramirez, Pedro Martinez, Keith Foulke, and Gary Sheffield.

Summation: Potential minor league depth player. Ceiling of a mid-minors organizational player. Upside is limited by lack of impact at the plate. Unlikely to add much defensive value so will have to hit. Hit-over-power profile will rely on consistent ability to make contact. Hard worker who is always looking to get better.

Note: This page will be updated with a complete scouting report after the scouting team has seen the player in person.
