Greg Hammond
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average starter. Hammond 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. Never a hard thrower, Hammond now has games when he can't hit 85 MPH with his fastball. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Hammond is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Hammond has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Hammond 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.
