Ed Bielecki  
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Bielecki, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
Bielecki's move to first base is average. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Bielecki is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bielecki has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Bielecki as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
