Bill Pecota  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His slider is sharp and breaks both horizontally and vertically. His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average starter. Pecota can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He has quick feet and can catch runners napping at first or second base. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately.
