On August 2, 2007, Upton was called up to the big leagues at the age of only 19, which made him the youngest player in baseball. Since then he has made 2 All-Star teams, and won a Silver Slugger in 2011, hit 94 HRs, 305 RBIs, and 67 SBs.
So far this year Justin Upton has struggled, but I am not reading too much into that. He is a hell of a defensive player, winning "Fielding Bible Award" for RF last year, which recognizes the best defensive player for each fielding position in the MLB based on statistical analysis. On top of that, last year he hit 31 HRs with 88 RBIs and 21 SBs while hitting .289 (while coming in 4th for MVP of the NL). When you say "5 tool player" you think Justin Upton. There is nothing this kid can't do.
