Erik Kuster  
First Baseman | Free Agents

Hitting
This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. The Free Agents do tend to sit Kuster when the opposing team throws a lefty. It's no secret he can't touch the left-handed breaking ball.

Baserunning & Defense
He doesn't get good jumps on grounders, but his routes are fine and his hands aren't bad. His arm is accurate enough. Kuster is an intelligent baserunner with average speed, but he's not a basestealing threat.

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