Chris Shilanski  
Catcher | Free Agents

Hitting
He has the mental discipline to handle clutch situations. The book on Shilanski is that you can knock the bat out of his hands with an average major league fastball. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
His defense is solid but unspectacular. His arm is accurate enough. Shilanski isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out.

2025 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Shilanski to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.
