Callen Brugse
Relief Pitcher | Fort Mac Roughnecks
Pitching His impeccable control is one of the main reasons for his success. He can spot all his pitches wherever he wants. This guy has closer written all over him. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.
Defense & Hitting For a lefty, his move to first base is average at best, and he has a tendency to forget about runners at second, thereby creating opportunities to swipe third. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Brugse is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Brugse has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Fort Mac Roughnecks have been known to use Brugse as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook The Fort Mac Roughnecks signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Brugse like a hot potato if something better comes along.
