Gideon Bairos
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. Bairos also has a decent changeup. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His move to first isn't very good, but his delivery is fairly quick and he isn't overly vulnerable to the stolen base. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Bairos is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bairos has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Bairos as a pinch-runner on occasion.
