Hitting
Sutton never has been a patient hitter. Sutton always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.
Baserunning & Defense
His arm and range are average, and he has a tendency to get lazy with his feet. Sutton doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a couple bases each season without getting caught very often.
2010 Outlook
AA isn't the right place for Sutton. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling.
