Baseball-reference.com most similar batters through age 26:
Bill Nicholson (973)
Joe Carter (966)
Curtis Granderson (963)
Bobby Higginson (961)
David Justice (958)
Andre Ethier (955)
Willard Marshall (955)
Jim Greengrass (954)
Jim Edmonds (954)
Ivan Calderon (954)

Career .275 hitter with 20-20 ability who at age 26 is probably just hitting his prime. With above average range and a decent arm, I fail to see exactly where he "sucks".
