Travis Helderman  
Catcher | Free Agents

Hitting
This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. Helderman always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
No longer much of a threat to steal, he's smart enough to make pitchers pay if they ignore him. When you play Helderman you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is well above average both in strength and accuracy.

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