Eddie Gore
Starting Pitcher | Detroit Polar Bears
Pitching The bottom also falls out of his very good changeup. Gore can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Because he can't overpower hitters, Gore has to fool them instead. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting Gore remains one of the best fielding pitchers in the game's history. His pickoff move is only fair. Gore is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gore has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Detroit Polar Bears have been known to use Gore as a pinch-runner on occasion.
