The Book on Michael Aviles

Prospect Info

Born 3/13/1981
2B, KC

A native New Yorker, Aviles is a journeyman infielder on the cusp of being a major league regular. A stocky player with a short, compact swing, Aviles a gap hitter with a little power. He lacks speed and range, but has a good glove and a strong arm. He is best suited to second base, though he can also play shortstop. Aviles could probably fill a good bench role for most major league teams, but Kansas City is well-stocked in middle infielders, which means he'll spend 2008 hoping for a trade or injury to open the way.
