Dennis Blackmore  
Starting Pitcher | Creston Kokanee

Pitching
He has the ability to coax groundballs, which helps him succeed. Blackmore also has a decent changeup. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him.

Defense & Hitting
He has quick feet and can catch runners napping at first or second base. Blackmore is nothing special in the field. Blackmore is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Blackmore has some pop in his swing.
