Lawrence Blamires  
Starting Pitcher | Fredericton Bandits

Pitching
Blamires has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties. He absolutely loves playing before the hometown crowd, and they love him!

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is merely average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Blamires is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Blamires has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Fredericton Bandits have been known to use Blamires as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
The Fredericton Bandits signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Blamires like a hot potato if something better comes along.
