Jermaine Dye

Bio

School: Consumnes River College, CA
Drafted: 17th round of the 1993 draft by the Atlanta Braves
Scouting Report: Owns a top-tier power bat. When he gets on a roll he can pile up the homers and doubles. Pretty mobile for a big fella, and he's also a fantastic outfielder with an incredible arm. A lack of plate discipline or clutch ability makes him an inconsistent run producer. Very streaky from year to year. Nagging injuries are always an issue.
