Robbie Widlansky, outfielder

Who is he?

A 26-year-0ld lefhanded-hitting outfielder/first baseman who has neither speed, patience, or power. His career AA stats are.261/.310/.385 in 159 games. And 2011 was the first season he played in more than 100 games. He did hit well as a 24-year-old in half a High-A season, and hit okay (.283/.345/.394 )in 140 Norfolk plate appearances. Thirty years ago, if he could sustain his Norfolk performance, he might have had a shot at a career as a pinch-hitting specialist. In today’s game, not so much.
