Carlos Cotter  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. He keeps the ball down and gets a lot of groundballs. He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Cotter's fastball is a tick above average, in the 90-91 MPH range on most nights. Cotter also has a decent changeup. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. Cotter never has been a good fielder. Cotter is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Cotter has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Cotter as a pinch-runner on occasion.
