Bill Montague
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. 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 tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. He traditionally fares better against lefties.
Defense & Hitting Montague's move to first base is average. Montague is nothing special in the field. Montague is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Montague has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Montague as a pinch-runner on occasion.
