Hitting
Thwaites always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. The Fredericton Bandits do tend to sit Thwaites when the opposing team throws a lefty. It's no secret he can't touch the left-handed breaking ball.
Baserunning & Defense
Thwaites isn't fast, but he's a heady baserunner who rarely gets thrown out. When you play Thwaites you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough.
2025 Outlook
I can't say I know what The Fredericton Bandits were doing locking this guy up to a long term contract. A questionable call at best. If Thwaites doesn't perform, the Fredericton Bandits won't hesitate to send him down to the minors.
