Joe Mayer  
Catcher | Philadelphia Phillies

Hitting
Mayer always has been a line-drive hitter who uses the entire field. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
Mayer doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a handful of bases each season without getting caught very often. When you play Mayer you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough.

2010 Outlook
The Philadelphia Phillies signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Mayer like a hot potato if something better comes along.
