Ole Oquendo  
Starting Pitcher | Chicago Windbags

Pitching
He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Oquendo can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. His composure needs work. When Oquendo starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.

Defense & Hitting
With a decent slide step and his constant attention to the running game, Oquendo limits the damage done by basestealers. Oquendo expects to be an active participant in the infield defense and does a good job of getting to grounders back up the middle. Oquendo is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Oquendo has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Chicago Windbags have been known to use Oquendo as a pinch-runner on occasion.
