Greg Pirkl  
First Baseman | Retired or Inactive Players

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

Baserunning & Defense
His defense is solid but unspectacular. His arm is accurate enough. Pirkl doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a handful of bases each season without getting caught very often.

2010 Outlook
AA isn't the right place for Pirkl. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling.
