Apparently, he doubles as a shortstop, but like Jon said, the lateral range is a problem, which basically limits him to a 2nd baseman who, supposedly, has a weak arm. But, the kid is supposed to be a wiz with the bat, contact wise. He has a good eye for the strike zone, and will put up good OBP's, and high contact rates with almost no power. I could deal with that... I did some reading on that Ping-Chieh Chen kid.
