Orlando Palmeiro  
Center Fielder | Free Agents

Hitting
Palmeiro never has been a patient hitter. He hangs in well against lefthanders' breaking balls, and some of the pitchers he hits best are the southpaw specialists often brought in to face him. You can expect Orlando Palmeiro to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.

Baserunning & Defense
When you play Palmeiro you're not putting him in for his glove. Orlando's arm leaves a little to be a desired. His speed is below average and he's not a threat to steal.
