Brad Wilkerson  
Left Fielder | Minnesota Horde

Hitting
Wilkerson was a line-drive hitter when he first came up, but over the last few years has become more of a true home-run hitter, lofting more high flyballs. Even though you might not start him, he's not a bad guy to have on your bench for the tough left-handed reliever. He uses the entire field and has gap power.

Baserunning & Defense
When you play Wilkerson you're not putting him in for his glove. Runners take advantage of his weak arm. 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 Minnesota Horde signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Wilkerson like a hot potato if something better comes along.
