Scouting Report
Was superb with the glove at the hot corner. Had great bat speed and could be a huge run producer when he was in the zone. Could get red-hot with the bat for stretches and carry his team on his back. Did not strike out a lot. Was lovable and always had fun playing the game of baseball. Was better with age and played at a high level into his late 30's. Was rather streaky from time to time, especially early on in his MLB career. Also lacked ideal patience at the dish. Was a bit injury-prone. In his younger days, his cold snaps could take significant time to get out of.
Long Range Potential: All-time great third baseman.
