Bobby Harrington  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Harrington can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball is just average, and therefore he relies heavily on placing it in different parts of the strike zone or setting it up with his curveball. Harrington also has a decent changeup. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him.

Defense & Hitting
Runners do not get a good jump on Harrington... many have noted that his motion is difficult to pick up. He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. Harrington is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Harrington has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Harrington as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
I really like what this kid brings to the table.
