Rick Berger  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He's a pretty good ground-ball pitcher, which I like because ground balls stay in the park. If you're going in to face Berger, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
Berger is nothing special in the field. His windup, though, makes him an easy target to run on. Berger is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Berger has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Berger to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Berger.
