Nathan Cave  
Shortstop | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
Cave always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He doesn't perform well against right-handed pitching.

Baserunning & Defense
Cave plays a near-flawless shortstop, making very few errors. His arm is accurate enough. He steals a few bases with his combination of quickness and a decent first step.

2025 Outlook
In one full big league season, Cave already has done more than what scouts projected when he came out of college.
