Pitching/Defense:

Throwing a wicked riser and big curve, along with slightly more human-like knuckle slurve offerings, Truck has everything needed to be successful on the mound.  His command, break, and speed changes continue to keep even the most veteran hitters off-balance.

Batting/Baserunning

Trucker's bat can simply take over games at times, as evident during last year's midsummer classic and Fatty.  He has no problem turning on inside pitches and is accomplished enough with 2-strikes that he can wait for a pitch to smash outta the rink.

2007 Outlook:

With Cota's departure, look for the big fella to get more chances on the hill this season.  More chances are only likely to result in more wins and strikeouts, and a probable return to MVP consideration for the man who started it all.
