Rich Beare
Shortstop | Halifax Oilers
Hitting Beare never has been a patient hitter. With his slap-hitting approach, Beare always hits like he already has two strikes. The results are usually groundballs or line drives to the opposite field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Rich Beare to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.
Baserunning & Defense He might not deliver for you at the plate, but Beare can certainly deliver in the field. He is an exceptional fielder. His arm is accurate enough. Beare doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a couple bases each season without getting caught very often.
2025 Outlook What The Halifax Oilers was thinking when they signed Beare to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. Beare flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Halifax Oilers to send him down promptly.
