Ray Mahon  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's a finesse pitcher, relying on movement and location. He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Mahon also has a decent changeup. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. When you throw a curveball, it better break. Hanging curves equal earned runs in this league, you just can't get away with them. Unfortunately, Mahon's curveball tends to hang. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
Though he lacks a good pickoff move, he checks the running game with a compact stretch delivery. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position.
