Jake Bennett's agent sucks. He should fire him and hire Gable Mitchell's.

He had a monster year (1.250 OPS) with 19 HR in 43 games. The panel described him as a likely 1B/DH type and not a future catcher but they said he posts huge exit velocities along with the huge counting stats. It's a low value profile but sometimes these dudes just keep on hitting.
