Tony Thon  
Left Fielder | Free Agents

Hitting
He has the mental discipline to handle clutch situations. Thon never has been a patient hitter. Let's face facts: Thon hits a lot of ground balls... and in my book, if you're slow of foot and put the ball on the ground, you're bound to get tied up in the double play. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Tony Thon to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.

Baserunning & Defense
Thon has below-average speed and is a poor baserunner. In the past, his critics have accused Thon of being a liability in the field. His arm is accurate enough.
