Scouting Report:
Strengths:
Wells won three consecutive gold gloves from 2004-06, largely due to his exceptional range in center field, and a powerful throwing arm[1]. He has also displayed power at the plate, with double digit home run totals in 6 of his 9 seasons[2]. Wells uses a line-drive swing, and an aggressive approach at the plate produces a lot of RBI[3].Weaknesses:
Despite all of his physical attributes, Wells is not a classic 5-tool player[1]. Wells has relatively few stolen bases for a player of his speed[2]. Wells also tends to be less patient at the plate than he is on the bases, with a near 2:1 strikeout to walk ratio[3].-
