Scouting Report

Stern is a speedy outfielder known more for his defense than his hitting. He may be able to hit for a decent average as a major leaguer, but he'll never have much in the way of power. He profiles as more of a fourth or fifth outfielder coming in as a pinch runner/defensive replacement.
