Monte Abbott
Starting Pitcher | Regina Pirates
Pitching He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Abbott can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. Because he can't overpower hitters, Abbott has to fool them instead. He attacks lefties and righties the same way.
Defense & Hitting Abbott's move to first base is average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Abbott is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Abbott has some pop in his swing.
