A consistent switch-hitter from both sides of the plate, he lined the ball into the gaps with regularity. Was an outstanding defensive outfielder with a strong, accurate arm. Lacked consistency from year to year and did not make enough adjustments to pitchers. Also, he was not assertive enough at the plate. Was also prone to injury. | |
Long Range Potential: | Solid switch-hitting outfielder (when healthy). |
