Lance Besecker
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching It's tough to get much loft on the ball against him, as he works down in the strike zone to begin with and his two-seamer produces mostly groundballs. If you're going in to face Besecker, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Besecker doesn't make much of an attempt to combat the running game. Basestealers ran at will last year. Besecker is agile on the mound, though he makes needless errors when his concentration wanders. Besecker is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Besecker has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Besecker as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Besecker flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Besecker.
