Bud Woodson  
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. His changeup isn't bad... he fools his share of hitters. Woodson can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Because he can't overpower hitters, Woodson has to fool them instead. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.

Defense & Hitting
Woodson does an average job of holding runners. He hurts himself by falling awkwardly off the mound in his follow-through, which allows too many balls to go through the middle for base hits. Woodson is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Woodson has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Woodson 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.
