Bill Ford  
Second Baseman | Free Agents

Hitting
Ford always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. Even though you might not start him, he's not a bad guy to have on your bench for the tough left-handed reliever.

Baserunning & Defense
He doesn't get good jumps on grounders, but his routes are fine and his hands aren't bad. His arm is accurate enough. Ford is an intelligent baserunner with average speed, but he's not a basestealing threat.

2010 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Ford to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.
