Jeff Laskey  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
Though Laskey can't just blow the ball by hitters, he has some giddyup on his fastball. 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 Laskey starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Laskey, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
His slow delivery makes him fairly easy to steal upon, but Laskey helps himself by holding runners with throws to first, and with slide steps and varied deliveries to home. He hurts himself by falling awkwardly off the mound in his follow-through, which allows too many balls to go through the middle for base hits. Laskey is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Laskey has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Laskey as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
But if you ask me, I'll pass on Laskey.
