Braeden Whooper  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
His windup, though, makes him an easy target to run on. Whooper has been regarded as a poor fielder throughout his career, and last year was no different. Whooper is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Whooper has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Whooper as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
One has to wonder what Braeden Whooper is doing in AA. In all honesty, he could use a lot of work on the fundamentals in the low minors. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Whooper.
