Brian Buchanan  
First Baseman | Free Agents

Hitting
Buchanan never has been a patient hitter. Buchanan always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
Buchanan doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a couple bases each season without getting caught very often. When you play Buchanan you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough.
