"Kiner-Falefa has player in eight big league seasons. His career slash line is .262/.311/.349. He's hit between .261 and .271 five times. His highest batting average was .280 and his lowest .238. He's never posted an OPS of .700 or more in a full season (when traded, he has done so during parts of seasons). He's stolen double-digit bases in each of the last five seasons."
"He spent four years with the Texas Rangers and then (parts of) two seasons with the Yankees, Pirates, and Blue Jays. In December 2023, Kiner-Falefa signed with the Toronto Blue Jays. At the deadline in 2024, the Jays traded him to the Pirates for a minor league infielder (Charles McAdoo) who plays second and third plus some right field. IKF has played mostly shortstop, third, and second but you get the point."

He has primarily played shortstop, third, and second, spending four years with the Rangers and parts of seasons with the Yankees, Pirates, and Blue Jays.
