George Vukovich
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching When his release point drops below three-quarters, his fastball tends to hang in the strike zone. Vukovich also has a decent changeup. If you're going in to face Vukovich, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Vukovich, and that's saying a lot. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting For a lefty, his move to first base is average at best, and he has a tendency to forget about runners at second, thereby creating opportunities to swipe third. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Vukovich is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Vukovich has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Vukovich as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Vukovich.
