Grant Newton
Center Fielder | West Bay Red Skulls
Hitting
Newton never has been a patient hitter. I tell you, it's a real trip to watch this kid play. He gives 110% all the time... unfortunately that means he tends to run out of gas as the game wears on. Even though you might not start him, he's not a bad guy to have on your bench for the tough left-handed reliever. He rarely pulls pitches, preferring to shoot line drives to right-center.
Baserunning & Defense
His defense is solid but unspectacular. His arm is accurate enough. Newton isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out.
2025 Outlook
The West Bay Red Skulls signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Newton like a hot potato if something better comes along.
