Pitching
When sportscasters talk about Caliente's rubber arm, they're not kidding. Sometimes I think he can start both games of a double header! Caliente is a control pitcher; when he's on he has pinpoint control. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Caliente also has a decent changeup. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
Caliente uses a slide step to keep runners close. 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. Caliente is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Caliente has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Caliente as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
I don't say this often, but I'll say it for Caliente: he's one of the highest rated pitchers on my scouting sheet.
