Joe Toth
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching Toth can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Toth also has a decent changeup. Because he can't overpower hitters, Toth has to fool them instead. Toth has had a tendency to fall victim to big innings. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success. It's hard to explain but Joe Toth plays much better on the road then he does at home.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is only fair. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Toth is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Toth has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Toth as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
