Zac Butler brings power, polish, and backstop leadership to Wright State
In the 2026 season, Wright State catcher Zac Butler showed real two-way value: he hit .288 in Horizon League play with an .897 OPS, delivered a key two-run homer in the Raiders’ 6-0 win over Tennessee, and posted a .994 fielding percentage behind the plate. The bigger story is his reputation as the leader of the pitching staff and a catcher coaches trust in pressure spots, which makes him more than a stat line. If a team wants a tough, experienced backstop with pop, defensive reliability, and quiet-killer competitiveness, Butler is a strong fit.
