John Lange  
Second Baseman | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
Lange always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. 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.

Baserunning & Defense
Lange plays a near-flawless second baseman, making very few errors. His biggest problem in the field simply has to be his throwing arm... it's well below par. Lange doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a couple bases each season without getting caught very often.
