Vic Baker  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
In past seasons, Baker has been a bit of a liability with men on base. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. He's a straight pull hitter whose power extends from the leftfield gap to the line.

Baserunning & Defense
He doesn't get good jumps on grounders, but his routes are fine and his hands aren't bad. His biggest problem in the field simply has to be his throwing arm... it's well below par. Baker 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.
