Bud Gonzales
Starting Pitcher | London Clash
Pitching Gonzales's control is among the best in the game. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. His fastball is just average, and therefore he relies heavily on placing it in different parts of the strike zone. Gonzales also has a decent changeup. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Gonzales's move to first base is excellent. He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. Gonzales is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gonzales has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The London Clash have been known to use Gonzales as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook I really like what this guy brings to the table.
