Scouts have some concerns that he'll have to transition to first base, and TotalZone more than backs that up. CHONE's projection for his defense is -12/150! Some good news though is he has shown a pretty big split, and his projected CHONE wOBA through regressed split projection based off his minor league numbers is .315.
