Lomas Lacko
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching Lacko has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. Lacko also has a decent changeup. His composure needs work. When Lacko starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. If you're going in to face Lacko, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Lacko, and that's saying a lot. Lacko has no endurance. He's good for an inning an outing, tops. In his first taste of the majors, he has kept righthanders in check but wasn't as effective against lefties.
Defense & Hitting Lacko is nothing special in the field. Lacko has a lousy move to first, and opposing managers will run against him all day. Lacko is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Lacko has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Lacko as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Lacko.
