Jim Northrup  
Center Fielder | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
Northrup never has been a patient hitter. He hangs in well against lefthanders' breaking balls, and some of the pitchers he hits best are the southpaw specialists often brought in to face him. You can expect Jim Northrup to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is. Northrup struggles on the road.

Baserunning & Defense
His defense is solid but unspectacular. Runners take advantage of his weak arm. Northrup doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a couple bases each season without getting caught very often.

2025 Outlook
Northrup isn't cutting the mustard in the low minors. It's time for Jim to investigate other career options, like coaching highschool ball.
