Scouting Report
& Links |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
Physical Description: Tall,
sturdy frame. Average athlete. Athleticism has decreased as he
has physically matured.
Hit: Starts
square in a slight crouch. Leg kick timing device. Below-average
bat speed, struggles with velocity. Swing has some length. Hit
tool is a major question mark. Will always have swing and miss
in his game. Can struggle to recognize breaking balls. Does know
the strike zone and willing to work the count and take a walk.
Well below-average potential hit tool.
Power:
Above-average raw power. Swing has loft and is on an uphill
plane. How much his power will play in game will be determined
by how much contact he makes. Potential fringe-average raw
power.
Run: Average speed. Good
instincts on the bases.
Field: Potential
solid-average right fielder. Decreased athleticism has pushed
him into a corner primarily, though could play center in a
pinch. Good instincts in the outfield, average range.
|
|
Arm: Above-average arm.
Career
Notes: Considered a potential five-tool
prospect out of high school. The Diamondbacks signed him out of
a commitment to Arizona State. Put together a fine year in 2017,
vaulting his prospect status. Struggled as he started to face
more advanced pitching in 2018. Boston acquired him from Arizona
for Blake Swihart early in 2019. Played at the Alternate
Training Site for the final three weeks of the 2020 season.
Opened 2021 season at the Alternate Training Site.
Summation: Projects as a solid organizational
outfielder. Ceiling of a an up and down bench outfielder. Lack
of hit tool limits upside. Other tools all grade out around
average, but has far too much swing and miss in his game. Elite
makeup and work ethic. Leaves it all on the field and is a very
vocal and supportive teammate.
