Bill Dennis  
Shortstop | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
Dennis always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. The switch-hitting Dennis has better plate coverage and more power from the left side than when he bats righthanded.

Baserunning & Defense
Dennis isn't a fluid shortstop, but he's not afraid to get dirty and gets the job done. His arm is well above average both in strength and accuracy. Dennis isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out.
