veteran Liberty bat with real pop and positional value
In the 2025 season, John Simmons gave Liberty a versatile, left-handed infield option who posted a .294 average with 22 RBI and 20 runs in 41 games, then followed that with a 2026 roster role as a senior INF after appearing in 21 games with six starts and hitting .294 with 22 RBI and 20 runs on the season line listed by Liberty. He stands out for bat-to-ball consistency, usable power, and lineup flexibility at first base, third base, or DH; his grand slam against Virginia showed he can swing a big game. That makes him a solid fit if you want an experienced, steady, right-now contributor who can handle pressure without getting cute.
