I used BaseballRefeence.Com 's leader board / yearly top-ten / strikeouts
- could not really find a comparable decent in both average and production.
- thinking of his incredibly awkward looking follow-through, I am going to lean more heavily toward his being too muscle-bound. I think you have to be more flexible than he appears to be. I cannot recall what his swing looked like before he came to Atlanta, nor can I remember if his swing was the same during his long hitting streak a few years ago.
I will amend my Rob Deer comment to say that he was a good to very good defensive outfielder...which does not especially show up in his stats.
