Chet Whitehead
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Whitehead can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Whitehead also has a decent changeup. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely 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.
