Hitting
This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Julien Kriesel to pull the ball.
Baserunning & Defense
When you play Kriesel you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough. Kriesel isn't a good baserunner. He doesn't get good jumps on steals nor runs sharp routes around the bases.
2025 Outlook
Kriesel was a rule-five pickup for the Retired or Inactive Players last year. I think The Retired or Inactive Players just didn't want to be left out of the Rule-V draft, why else would you sign Kriesel?
