VP$IP %/Pre-flop raise %/Total aggression Factor

VP$IP % (% that you voluntarily put $$ in the pot, blinds aren't voluntary) of 55 is high
Pre-flop raise % of 5% is low
Aggression Factor (computation of how aggressive player is on all streets) of 1 is low

Basically this player is loose/passive and you'd prefer to be tight/aggressive or loose/aggressive depending on what you're playing (cash games, tournaments, particular variant of poker, etc.)

Fyi, a player that calls with lots of hands but doesn't raise much is one of the most profitable players to have at your table.

Is the 55/5/1 you? If so, better make some changes. If not, seek out this player and sit with him whenever you can.

Generally speaking, a VP$IP between 14 & 20, PFR between 10 & 15, and AF of 2-3 is considered ideal.
