Franklin Rowland  
Catcher | Free Agents

Hitting
Rowland never has been a patient hitter. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
Rowland is an intelligent baserunner with average speed, but he's not a basestealing threat. When you play Rowland you're not putting him in for his glove. His arm is accurate enough.
