Charley Baerga
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He keeps his pitches low in the strike zone and throws a heavy ball. Baerga also throws a screwball. If you're going in to face Baerga, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Baerga, and that's saying a lot. When you throw a curveball, it better break. Hanging curves equal earned runs in this league, you just can't get away with them. Unfortunately, Baerga's curveball tends to hang. This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.
Defense & Hitting Baerga does an average job of holding runners. Baerga is nothing special in the field. Baerga is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Baerga has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Baerga as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Baerga.
