Ole Cottrell  
Shortstop | Free Agents

Hitting
The book on Cottrell is that you can knock the bat out of his hands with an average major league fastball. But Ole's detracters are quick to call attention to his ongoing struggles at the plate with men on base. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Ole Cottrell to pull the ball.

Baserunning & Defense
Cottrell is an intelligent baserunner with average speed, but he's not a basestealing threat. Minor league scouts have accused Cottrell of being a liability in the field. His arm is a weapon that ranks in the top five in the league.

2025 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Cottrell to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.
