Dana Hills  
Catcher | Cobourg Stampeders

Hitting
Hills always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
Hills isn't a fluid catcher, but he's not afraid to get dirty and gets the job done. His arm is accurate enough. Hills doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a handful of bases each season without getting caught very often.

2025 Outlook
I can't say I know what The Cobourg Stampeders were doing locking this guy up to a long term contract. A questionable call at best. AA isn't the right place for Hills. Expect the Cobourg Stampeders to send him down for some minor retooling.
