Horatio Barnes  
Starting Pitcher | Dublin Deadbeat Drunks

Pitching
He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Barnes also has a solid changeup that he'll use at any point in the count. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
His biggest weakness is controlling the running game, though he was decent last year. Barnes is nothing special in the field. Barnes is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Barnes has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Dublin Deadbeat Drunks have been known to use Barnes as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
I don't say this often, but I'll say it for Barnes: he's one of the highest rated pitchers on my scouting sheet.
