He broke out that year by hitting 19 home runs and 31 doubles with 82 RBI to earn MiLB.com Organization All-Star honors. He also played in the Arizona Fall League that season. He followed that with 13 home runs and 57 RBI in 2013 and another AZFL selection. In 2014, he had 13 home runs and 69 RBI, despite a .238/.303/.386 slash line. He became a free agent following the season and signed with the Atlanta Braves, who let him go prior to the start of the 2015 season.
