Really, he shows it just about every October, with a career. Before these playoffs started, Taylor was an All Star. He slashed. That did little to impact his durability, though. Taylor has played seven different positions as a big leaguer, including designated hitter. He played the other six in alone, with 61 games in center field, 46 at second base, 30 in left field, 23 at shortstop, 11 at third base and eight in right field.
