Scouting Report
Tall slugger with a good hitter’s frame. 6-foot-5 and 205 pounds, but still has room to bulk up a bit and add some muscle and power. Below-average defensively, which is why he was moved to the outfield in the first place, but that didn’t work out either. Above-average arm strength. Below-average range and needs to improve footwork. Tremendous bat speed and a quick swing. Average present power but an elite power ceiling. He’s still learning how to work counts and identify breaking pitches, but his approach has improved within the last year. Has a tendency to lunge at balls so he needs to learn how to sit back and wait for his pitch. Will shoot the ball all over the diamond for singles but most of his present home run power is to right field. One more year (2011) before the Orioles have to decide whether to place him on the 40-man or risk losing him to another team in the Rule-5 Draft.
