It's alarming for a guy that hits 13 HRs/year. The Red Sox team BA from 2003-2005 was higher. It's not the fact that he has no power that makes him a marginal major leaguer. It's the fact that he has marginal skills. He's slow, with a noodle arm, a slow bat, and no power. Where is the major league skill? Hard work has gotten him this far and he should be admired for that, but he's a bench player at best. His upside is being a Scott Hatteburg type player. That's his upside.
