Well, according to baseball-reference.com, his career batting average was ~.400, but that's only counting four seasons (1925-1927 & 1929). Evidently, he played a maximum of seven years; 1925-1931. In 1932, he contracted yellow fever while playing in Cuba, and died at the age of 30.

If he hadn't died when he did, and been able to play the requisite 10 years, who knows.....

Steve.
