Rit Bettin  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
A groundball pitcher, Bettin needs to have sharp command to succeed. Bettin also has a decent changeup. The Free Agents 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. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. He doesn't have much of a pickoff move and he's slow getting the ball to home plate out of the set position. Bettin is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bettin has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Bettin as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
But if you ask me, I'll pass on Bettin.
