Arlie Betschart
Starting Pitcher | Morocco Mayhem
Pitching He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Betschart's fastball is a tick above average, in the 90-91 MPH range on most nights. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. The Morocco Mayhem hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.
Defense & Hitting He has a quick release to the plate, which allows catchers a chance to throw out basestealers. Betschart is nothing special in the field. Betschart is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Betschart has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Morocco Mayhem have been known to use Betschart as a pinch-runner on occasion.
