Harry Bues
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching Bues can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Bues also has a decent changeup. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Bues, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely 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. Bues is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bues has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Bues as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook I just don't know if The Free Agents are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
