Dave Whittaker  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
The book on Whittaker is that you can knock the bat out of his hands with an average major league fastball. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. One thing's for sure, Dave Whittaker is a dead-pull hitter. He absolutely loves playing before the hometown crowd.

Baserunning & Defense
His defense is solid but unspectacular. His arm is well above average both in strength and accuracy. Whittaker has below-average speed and is a poor baserunner.

2025 Outlook
Whittaker was a rule-five pickup for the Retired or Inactive Players last year. I think The Retired or Inactive Players just didn't want to be left out of the Rule-V draft, why else would you sign Whittaker?
