I've spent too much time on that question than I'd like to admit, but when you look at LH guys who are really tough to strike out, crank out doubles and hit HR in the teens, I come up with this guy: http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/staubru01.shtml
or this guy: http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/baineha01.shtml
But you've got to add speed to those equations.
If he gets bigger and stronger and develops more power (and gives up the ultra-low K rate as a result) then I see: http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/o/o'neipa01.shtml
As I've said, if he totally maxes out, then he loooks like the younger, slimmer, base-swiping Tony Gwynn but mixed with a bit more of a George Brett classic #3 hitter  -- but I'm not going there yet.
