I've read that Olerud is/was a slow runner. Good heady baserunner, but slow. I've also read that his batspeed is subpar for mlb players.

I deducted his athletic ability is less than most mlb players.

Athletic ability to me means, strength, speed, explosiveness.

If I'm wrong, set me straight.

I would say he's very high on the skill list. Very skilled both defensively and offensively. Great firstbaseman. Very good swing.

I deduct his skills took him much further than most with equivalent athletic ability.
