Johnny Bracken  
Left Fielder | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
In past seasons, Bracken has been a bit of a liability with men on base. The book on Bracken is that you can knock the bat out of his hands with an average major league fastball. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Johnny Bracken to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.

Baserunning & Defense
Bracken isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out. When you play Bracken you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough.

2025 Outlook
Bracken isn't cutting the mustard in the low minors. It's time for Johnny to investigate other career options, like coaching highschool ball.
