Waldorf Astoria  
First Baseman | Montreal Expos

Hitting
One thing's for sure, late in the game you're glad you have him on the field. Any manager would love to have this guy on his bench. He's a perfect for pinch hitting against a lefty reliever. You can expect Waldorf Astoria to pull the ball.

Baserunning & Defense
When you play Astoria you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough. He has below-average speed and is stiff on the basepath. He's poor on a straight steal but has some success at reading pitchers and working a delayed steal.

2010 Outlook
The Montreal Expos signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Astoria like a hot potato if something better comes along.
