Terry Flood
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching The Free Agents hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. His pitches lose some movement when he pitches from the stretch position. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Though he lacks a good pickoff move, he checks the running game with a compact stretch delivery. Flood's follow-through leaves him in a vulnerable position, so he has trouble with comebackers. Flood is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Flood has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Flood as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
