Hi Presto  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
Presto doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a handful of bases each season without getting caught very often. Presto is a poor defensive catcher. He isn't very mobile or adept at blocking balls in the dirt. His biggest problem in the field simply has to be his throwing arm... it's well below par.

2025 Outlook
Presto flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly.
