Stan Meacham
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching If you're going in to face Meacham, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Meacham, and that's saying a lot. 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, Meacham's curveball tends to hang. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting Meacham's move to first base is average. 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. Meacham is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Meacham has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Meacham as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Meacham.
