I wonder if his career would have been different had he hit well at Huntsville in 2000

Too old to be a prospect by then and just not enough power for a corner outfielder either way I suppose.

You know me Al.

Or a good utility player.

Not eye popping stats, but I find it hard to believe he wouldn’t have been useful on some truely bad Brewer teams.
