Gordon Winsett
Starting Pitcher | Houston RedNexx
Pitching Winsett's control is among the best in the game. Winsett throws a nice sinker... The rookies never seem to know when it's coming. His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average starter. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting He's reasonably quick to the plate but needs to vary his pickoff moves. Good baserunners appeared to time him last year. Winsett is nothing special in the field. Winsett is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Winsett has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Houston RedNexx have been known to use Winsett as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2014 Outlook I really like what this kid brings to the table.
