Connor Sackett brings contact, clutch damage, and veteran catcher value for Butler
In the 2026 season, Butler catcher Connor Sackett has been more contact-first than explosive, hitting .219 with 16 hits, 19 RBIs, and a .315 slugging percentage, but his 2025 breakout (.349 average, 30 hits, 17 RBIs) shows the upside when he’s locked in. He’s a big, experienced backstop with a strong offensive ceiling, showed he can swing a hot bat in key Big East moments, and brings a steady, team-first profile that fits a program needing leadership, competitiveness, and reliable catcher production.
