Bob Sheppard
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. Sheppard also has a decent changeup. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Sheppard, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His move to first isn't very good, but his delivery is fairly quick and he isn't overly vulnerable to the stolen base. Sheppard is agile on the mound, though he makes needless errors when his concentration wanders. Sheppard is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Sheppard has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Sheppard as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook I just don't know if The Free Agents are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
