Mark Meehan
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Meehan also has a decent changeup. The Retired or Inactive Players 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. 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 Though he lacks a good pickoff move, he checks the running game with a compact stretch delivery. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Meehan is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Meehan has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Meehan as a pinch-runner on occasion.
