Pitching
He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Ogden also has a decent changeup. The Free Agents 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. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Ogden, 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, Ogden's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. 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. Ogden is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Ogden has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Ogden as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
I just don't know if The Free Agents are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
