Mark Stine  
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Stine's bread-and-butter pitch is a hard, two-seam fastball that rides in on righthanders' fists. Stine has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. The Free Agents hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Stine, and that's saying a lot. Dating back to his days in the minors, Stine has been more effective against righthanders than lefthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Stine is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Stine has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Stine as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
But if you ask me, I'll pass on Stine.
