High OBP, high slugging, fantastic fielder, stole around 15 bases on average, great arm.


Yaz is a great one but in the 5 tools comparison he is in the next tier compared to a Mays, Mantle, Clemente type.

He really was not fast at all and doesnt match up even close in power numbers.

Yaz and Clemente are actually very similar numbers wise. Clemente averaged a slightly better WAR, but he didn't play when he was older (because of a courageous act) and he didn't have the 10 and 12 WAR season that Yaz did.
