Benji Saberhagen  
Second Baseman | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
In past seasons, Saberhagen has been a bit of a liability with men on base. This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. Saberhagen always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
He doesn't get good jumps on grounders, but his routes are fine and his hands aren't bad. Benji's arm leaves a little to be a desired. His speed is below average and he's not a threat to steal.

2025 Outlook
What The Retired or Inactive Players was thinking when they signed Saberhagen to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.
