Zack Toma
Starting Pitcher | Morocco Mayhem
Pitching He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. But Toma, do us a favor. Stop throwing that changeup. It looks like a beachball. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting Toma's move to first base is average. 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. Toma is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Toma has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Morocco Mayhem have been known to use Toma as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook If Toma doesn't perform, the Morocco Mayhem won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Morocco Mayhem are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
