Bill Gerard  
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
Gerard also has a decent changeup. 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 composure needs work. When Gerard starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
Gerard's move to first base is average. A shaky fielder, he's slow to react to grounders and often looks unsure on his throws to the bases. Gerard is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gerard has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Gerard 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.
