Hitting
This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. The Retired or Inactive Players do tend to sit Rispoli when the opposing team throws a lefty. It's no secret he can't touch the left-handed breaking ball. You can expect Deryck Rispoli to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.
Baserunning & Defense
When you play Rispoli you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough. He has below-average speed and is stiff on the basepath. He's poor on a straight steal but has some success at reading pitchers and working a delayed steal.
2025 Outlook
Rispoli flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly.
