UL Sullivan  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect UL Sullivan to pull the ball.

Baserunning & Defense
Sullivan isn't a fluid catcher, but he's not afraid to get dirty and gets the job done. UL's arm leaves a little to be a desired. 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
Sullivan has below average skills, even for the low minors. One has to expect the Retired or Inactive Players will give him his walking papers before the end of the season.
