Jack Benjamin  
First Baseman | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
But Jack's detracters are quick to call attention to his ongoing struggles at the plate with men on base. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. Even though you might not start him, he's not a bad guy to have on your bench for the tough left-handed reliever.

Baserunning & Defense
Benjamin isn't a fluid first baseman, but he's not afraid to get dirty and gets the job done. His arm is accurate enough. Benjamin isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out.
