Bob Natal  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

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

Baserunning & Defense
Natal has below-average speed and is a poor baserunner. In the past, his critics have accused Natal of being a liability in the field. Runners take advantage of his weak arm.

2010 Outlook
Natal flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly.
