Jim Berger  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
This guy can't hit a watermelon with a lampost. Berger always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
His glovework leaves a lot to be desired. Runners take advantage of his weak arm. Berger often has trouble scoring from second base on singles and goes from first to third only on hits to right field.

2010 Outlook
What The Retired or Inactive Players was thinking when they signed Berger to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.
