A 5 tools player is someone who can do it all. There is no weakness to their game. True 5 tool players are very rare.

Reminder, online training available at hitterish.com/online-baseball-lessons
A 5 tool player is extremely good at all 5 abilities.
Mike Trout is a good example of a 5 tool player.

Most power hitters are too big to run fast. Most fast players lack the power to hit home runs consistently.
A 5 tools player does it all.
