Chris Widger  
Catcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Hitting
Widger never has been a patient hitter. Let's face facts: Widger hits a lot of ground balls... and in my book, if you're slow of foot and put the ball on the ground, you're bound to get tied up in the double play. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
His defense is solid but unspectacular. His arm is accurate enough. His speed is below average and he's not a threat to steal.

2010 Outlook
If Widger doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors.
