"He hits a lot of extra-base hits," Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. "When he hits the ball, he squares it up. It makes a good sound coming off his bat. Occasionally, he gets long. I think little by little he'll shorten his swing. He handles breaking balls pretty well. He's here to make an impression. He is by no means established. But I like what I see and I think he's got a chance to be a real good offensive player."
