He's a guy that got better as he got older. Developed into a great hitter with plus defense. I haven't looked in awhile but I think his numbers hold up and make him a borderline candidate. Too bad he never got serious consideration, probably due to falling short in the counting stats, and never being considered one of the best players in the game at any given time.
