Steve Cameron
Relief Pitcher | Port Hope Battery
Pitching A groundball pitcher, Cameron needs to have sharp command to succeed. His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average reliever. He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. Because he can't overpower hitters, Cameron has to fool them instead. Steals sometimes unnerve Cameron, who isn't blessed with extraordinary self-confidence. He comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties.
Defense & Hitting He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. His move to first base is slow and ineffective. Cameron is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Cameron has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook The Port Hope Battery signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Cameron like a hot potato if something better comes along.
