He hits for power and average. The best part is that he is still unknown enough that some Vidro owners may still be convinced that he will fall off the pace. There is always a flip side to these types of players. Jermaine Dye looks to be cooling off and even if he is still productive through the year, his youth may dictate that he remains very inconsistent. That is one thing about youth in baseball.
Young players seem to go into slumps longer than veterans do.
Keep that in mind when considering the worth of a young talent. In general hitters have their career year at age 27 and stay in their prime for several years after that. Some players peak later and it is obvious who they are. Giambi is a prime example. He had a career year last season at age 28 and is headed for a monster year this season at 29.
