Desean Bolds  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Bolds can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. But Bolds, do us a favor. Stop throwing that changeup. It looks like a beachball. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

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