Grant Palinkas   Catcher | Free Agents Hitting Palinkas seems to become especially focused in big situations. Let's face facts: Palinkas hits a lot of ground balls... and in my book, if you're slow of foot and put the ball on the ground, you're bound to get tied up in the double play. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. Baserunning & Defense He generally takes one base at a time, though he'll take advantage if an outfielder gets lackadaisical. His glovework leaves a lot to be desired. His arm is accurate enough. 2025 Outlook I can't say I know what The Free Agents were doing locking this guy up to a long term contract. A questionable call at best.           -- Moostard Nyman
