Tom Taitt
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Taitt also has a decent changeup. The Retired or Inactive Players 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. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Taitt, and that's saying a lot. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting Taitt has a very good move to first base, and he varies it so that he's extremely difficult to read. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Taitt is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Taitt has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Taitt as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Taitt.
