Del Buechele
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Buechele likes to get hitters looking down and away, then ties them up by coming inside with hard stuff, getting a lot of groundball outs. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. But Buechele, do us a favor. Stop throwing that changeup. It looks like a beachball. He attacks lefties and righties the same way. It's hard to explain but Del Buechele plays much better on the road then he does at home.
Defense & Hitting Buechele's move to first base is average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. 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. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Buechele as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook AA isn't the right place for Buechele. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
