Jesse Buchek  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Buchek can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is merely average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Buchek is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Buchek has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Buchek as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
If Buchek doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
