Jacob Becenti
Relief 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. Becenti also has a decent changeup. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. 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, Becenti's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is only fair. Becenti is nothing special in the field. Becenti is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Becenti has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Becenti as a pinch-runner on occasion.
