He is average in the field, plus I like that hes a lefty and the Astros lineup has been way to right handed over the years.

I may be too harsh of a Huff critic. He was asked to do alot with the Rays and he was constantly involved in trade rumors for almost 2 years. I think it eventually just got to him. He is more of a "complimentary" type player. One of the pieces of the puzzle, but certainly not the main guy. I actually hope bounces back, despite all the bad things I've said about him.
