Jodd Janks  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
He doesn't get good jumps on grounders, but his routes are fine and his hands aren't bad. He has a strong, accurate arm. Janks isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out.
