Greatest Generation North Carolina Throws Right Bats Right North America Pittsburgh Pirates National League Second Baseman

Pep Young was a free swinger whose value came from contact quality rather than plate patience. The profile was built around an era-adjusted SLG+ of 96 (modest for the era), an AVG+ of 94 (below-average contact rate), an OBP+ of 91 (limited on-base ability), and a strikeout rate that limited the offensive floor.
