LilNick Prante  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. If you're going in to face Prante, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. 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, Prante's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Prante seems distracted after his delivery. He's sometimes out of position, fails to cover a base or doesn't back up throws. Prante is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Prante has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Prante as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
Prante flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Prante.
