Earl Koestner  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Koestner can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
Koestner does an average job of holding runners. Koestner is nothing special in the field.
