Jerry Bilby
Starting Pitcher | Owen Sound Crusaders
Pitching Bilby is a control pitcher; when he's on he has pinpoint control. His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average starter. His fastball is just average, and therefore he relies heavily on placing it in different parts of the strike zone or setting it up with his curveball. Bilby also has a decent changeup. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He's average in terms of controlling the running game. 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. Bilby is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bilby has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook Bilby has arguably the best stuff in baseball.
