A Good First Baseman With A .400 SLG

A good first baseman with a slugging percentage around .400 is like a good shortstop with bad range and an iffy arm. They just don't really exist, and the ones that do seem to get by on a truly odd skill set. A first baseman without power needs to be good at essentially everything else, while a good shortstop with lacking physical traits needs to have truly special instincts and a big-time bat in order to make up for such limitations.
