Paul Calderon  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

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

2014 Outlook
If Calderon 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.
