Harry Scherman
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching Scherman 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 Scherman starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. 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. Scherman is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Scherman has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Scherman as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
