Beckwith had two obstacles; his temper and time. His play was overshadowed by his inability to get along with Management in certain places. The timing of his birth hurt him as well. Yet the fact that he makes the radar of Bill James speaks volumes. The man was an Ox. If the NNL had a DH, he would've been best suited to play it. In the same statistical neighborhood as OH? Beautiful analysis.
