2013
There was no outlook written for Kevin Hooper.
2004
Hooper displayed a noodle bat at Triple-A, slugging just .306 -- an unacceptable figure for anybody that doesn't pitch. It was hoped that he would be ready to take over the utility infielder role by now, but his offense doesn't look like it's major league ready yet, even for a bench job.
2003
Hooper is being groomed as Andy Fox's successor as the utility guy, and has the same basic skill set -- bit of speed, no power, takes the occasional walk, doesn't embarrass himself with the glove at either middle infield spot. It's not a glamorous job, but somebody's got to do it.
