Menachem Gamba  
First Baseman | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
With his ability to hit for average and his sound batting eye, he makes a good No. 2 hitter. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. He rarely pulls pitches, preferring to shoot line drives to left-center.

Baserunning & Defense
Gamba isn't a fluid first baseman, but he's not afraid to get dirty and gets the job done. His arm is accurate enough. Gamba doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a few bases each season without getting caught very often.
