Bernie Worrell  
First Baseman | Halifax Oilers

Hitting
One of Worrell's strongest assets is his performance with men in scoring position. Bernie Worrellis Mr. Clutch. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. The Halifax Oilers do tend to sit Worrell when the opposing team throws a lefty. It's no secret he can't touch the left-handed breaking ball.

Baserunning & Defense
Worrell plays a near-flawless first baseman, making very few errors. His arm is accurate enough. He generally takes one base at a time, though he'll take advantage if an outfielder gets lackadaisical.

2025 Outlook
If Worrell doesn't perform, the Halifax Oilers won't hesitate to send him down to the minors.
