An eight-time All-Star, Vladimir Guerrero is widely recognized as one of the best all-around players in Major League Baseball because he regularly hits for power, has a high average, steals bases, and is credited with one of the strongest outfield arms in baseball. Guerrero is also regarded as the game's premier "bad ball hitter" for his ability to crush balls thrown outside of the strike zone. Veteran pitcher Jamie Moyer described Guerrero's style: "I say this respectfully: he's a freak. He's a very good hitter without a strike zone. He can hit the ball in, hit the ball off the plate away, hit the ball up and go get the ball that's down. He covers the plate, and beyond." Over his 13-year career, Guerrero has compiled a .325 BA with 365 home runs and 1177 RBIs. He has won 7 Silver Slugger awards, and has been an 8-time All Star with the Expos and Angels. He won the AL Most Valuable Player Award in 2004, and for the past 8 years has been closest by age statistically to Willie Mays.
