James Andrew
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Andrew also has a decent changeup. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. If you're going in to face Andrew, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He doesn't have much of a pickoff move and he's slow getting the ball to home plate out of the set position. He's slow to get off the mound to field his position, especially to the third-base side. Andrew is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Andrew has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Andrew as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Andrew was a rule-five pickup for the Retired or Inactive Players last year. I think The Retired or Inactive Players just didn't want to be left out of the Rule-V draft, why else would you sign Andrew? But if you ask me, I'll pass on Andrew.
