He doesn't have near the offensive skills but that's the guy he's most compared to because of his position, the way he plays the game, and that he's a winner. He won 2 titles at Oregon State and was the heart and soul of that team, and same with the USA team where he won a gold medal. I like him a lot and he might not have a high ceiling, but I think he's going to play in the big leagues.

I actaully had never heard about him before yesterday. Just that his batting stance looks a lot like Jeter's and he also plays shorstop. Wish him the best.
