Spanish term

bazas

Spanish to English Art/Literary Music Opera
Same sources as my previous question:
"*** se arriesgó a los dos papeles tenoriles simultáneamente, lo que hoy es poco frecuente, y se agradece. No salió mal parado. Obviamente, sus medios son más para ‘Turiddu’ que para ‘Canio’. Sus mejores bazas son el timbre y el agudo."

I know the term is in the glossary. But I need new ideas or a confirmation.
