Abraham Buechele  
Relief Pitcher | Victoria Islanders

Pitching
He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Buechele's fastball is a tick above average, in the 90-91 MPH range on most nights. Buechele also has a decent changeup. He generates few groundballs, though he keeps the ball in the park. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He has a quick release to the plate, which allows catchers a chance to throw out basestealers. He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. Buechele is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Buechele has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
Buechele has arguably the best stuff in baseball.
