Wally Houston   Left Fielder | Free Agents Hitting Houston never has been a patient hitter. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Wally Houston to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is. Baserunning & Defense Houston isn't a fluid left fielder, but he's not afraid to get dirty and gets the job done. His arm strength is well above average and runners rarely try to take liberties against him. Houston 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 What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Houston to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.           -- Moostard Nyman
