I am not sure yet about big power numbers from him - he is a big time gap hitter who may get stronger and is also definitely athletic enough to play left field. I have been reading on some websites about Chase Headley's short work with the Pads as being "disappointing" --to me it was the opposite, I really liked the way he played --to me he played like he belonged he also hit a few bullets in his first days at Wrigley that were caught otherwise the short sampling numbers would have been higher .<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-97296">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> I saw Headley play a lot this summer and I really like his swing !

Bradley and Barrett are Type A, and Cameron is Type B.
