Bernie Carson
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Carson can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. When his release point drops below three-quarters, his fastball tends to hang in the strike zone. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He's average in terms of controlling the running game. A shaky fielder, he's slow to react to grounders and often looks unsure on his throws to the bases. Carson is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Carson has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Carson as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook If Carson 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.
