Larry Blaeholder
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Steals sometimes unnerve Blaeholder, who isn't blessed with extraordinary self-confidence. If you're going in to face Blaeholder, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Blaeholder, and that's saying a lot. This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.
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. Blaeholder is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Blaeholder has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Blaeholder as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Blaeholder.
