Green was an academic all-American at Kentucky who never missed a game during his four-year career. The Diamondbacks consider him their prospect version of Craig Counsell. He is a gritty, hard-nosed player with an excellent baseball IQ. Though he's not physically imposing, Green does have some tools. He is a plus runner with excellent baserunning skills. Like Counsell, he won't hit for power, but he is a throwback No. 2 hitter with the bat control to move runners. Managers also rated him the best defensive second baseman in the Midwest League last year. He's gifted with quick feet and good hands. The Diamondbacks think so highly of Green's makeup, they are considering a promotion all the way to Triple-A in 2002. He's already 24 and needs a sterner challenge than Class A.
