James Bochart  
Center Fielder | Sask Yellow Jackets

Hitting
Bochart never has been a patient hitter. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. The Sask Yellow Jackets do tend to sit Bochart when the opposing team throws a lefty. It's no secret he can't touch the left-handed breaking ball.

Baserunning & Defense
Bochart is an above-average runner, but lacks the first-step explosiveness needed to become a basestealing threat. In the past, his critics have accused Bochart of being a liability in the field. Runners take advantage of his weak arm.

2025 Outlook
If Bochart doesn't perform, the Sask Yellow Jackets won't hesitate to send him down to the minors.
