Young, versatile (plays IF and OF) which obviously fills a glaring need, and some potential to work with. A major league ready prospect traded for a longer term (albeit a good one) project. Fits the "window to win" Donaldson period more so than the guy we gave up.

Fun fact.
In his rookie year he was the first player in history to sustain a .500 batting average after 50 at bats
