Derrell Howe  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
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 Howe starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. Never a hard thrower, Howe now has games when he can't hit 85 MPH with his fastball. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is only fair. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Howe is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Howe has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Howe 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.
