Sadly, "El Pajaro" doesn't even get a mention in JAR's tome for whatever reason. Not so important for hitters as hurlers, with pitch array being the main element to be gleaned from these sources, but it's still nice to have these bits of extraneous information at one's disposal. By dint of him having played a single game in the bigs for the Cards in 1913 (he went 0-for-2), however, he does have a BBRef page. On this, I discovered that he was the first Spanish-born (the Canary Islands, which is a Spanish territory) major-leaguer, and with his homeland being just off the African coast, can also be considered the first African to have made it as well. It wasn't until Gift Ngoepe in 2017 that there'd be another.

Nice.

He was quick and appears to have been a deft bunter, but didn't hit for much and relied on his excellent glovework, mainly at SS but also at 1B with limited time at 2B and 3B.

Straight-up 80-110%.
