Scouting Report: Despite some early flashes of brilliance at the pro level, Otness's hitting flaws have been exposed at the AA level, where he has been unable to demonstrate solid contact, power, or on base ability.  Decent  defensively. None of his tools are above average. Hits lefties well, making him a good catcher to have in a backup role.
