Turkey Spalding   Shortstop | Free Agents Hitting He has the mental discipline to handle clutch situations. This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. Spalding was a line-drive hitter when he first came up, but over the last few years has become more of a true home-run hitter, lofting more high flyballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. He uses the entire field and has gap power. Baserunning & Defense He might not deliver for you at the plate, but Spalding can certainly deliver in the field. He is an exceptional fielder. His arm is accurate enough. Spalding is an intelligent baserunner with average speed, but he's not a basestealing threat. 2025 Outlook It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.           -- Moostard Nyman
