Upton career UZR/150: +4.0 (OK, but he's faster and has a better arm than that)
Upton career BsR/150: +2.5 (again, with his speed he should be bagging 8 or 10 runs)
Upton career SB%: 70% (barely breaking even...not good)
Upton career O-SW%: 26% (slightly worse than MLB average)
Upton career O-CT%: 53% (slightly better than MLB average, which is bad)
Upton career BB/K: 0.38 (barely good enough to expect long term stability...for now)
That is a very mediocre skill set for a guy who is supposed to be a five-tool player, Doc. A real-deasl marquee player should be worth 5 runs on the bases, 10 runs in the field, 40 runs at the plate and do most of those little things right that I just listed to get there. Upton does none of those things particularly well.
