Dustin Carlton@  
Starting Pitcher | Creston Kokanee

Pitching
He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. His slider is sharp and breaks both horizontally and vertically. Carlton can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
Carlton has one of the better pickoff moves among big league righthanders. Carlton is nothing special in the field. Carlton is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Carlton has some pop in his swing.
