Cy Olson  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Olson has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. 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 comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. Olson is nothing special in the field. Olson is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Olson has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Olson as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
