Kurt Steiner  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Steiner 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. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. 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. Steiner is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Steiner has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Steiner as a pinch-runner on occasion.
