One of the most well-rounded players ever, he was spectacular defensively and a superb batter who hit for average and power (with great patience). Was also an instinctive base-stealer with top-end speed and a clutch, all-around performer. Sometimes, he let his temper get the better of him. Also, his production tailed off significantly in his early 30's. | |
Long Range Potential: | Arguably, the greatest second baseman of all time. |
