Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Miceli can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Miceli also has a decent changeup. His composure needs work. When Miceli starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. 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, Miceli's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Miceli is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Miceli has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Miceli as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
