McKinney was sent from the Dodgers to the Rangers along with Zach Reks in exchange for cash considerations Monday.
Scouting Report
When on top of his game, he parlays excellent strike-zone judgment into a solid batting average (at any level). Versatile, he can play all three outfield positions. Is somewhat prone to injury. Struggles to hit left-handed pitching with any sort of regularity. Also, he is a bit limited in terms of his overall home-run power.
Long Range Potential: Solid outfielder with some upside.
