Hamish Beard
Starting Pitcher | Fort Mac Roughnecks
Pitching Beard is a control pitcher; when he's on he has pinpoint control. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Beard's bread-and-butter pitch is a hard, two-seam fastball that rides in on righthanders' fists. Beard has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. He comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties.
Defense & Hitting Beard's move to first base is average. He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. Beard is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Beard has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook I really like what this kid brings to the table.
