OdieL Cushman  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Cushman also has a decent changeup. The Retired or Inactive Players hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Cushman is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Cushman has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Cushman as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Cushman isn't cutting the mustard in the low minors. It's time for OdieL to investigate other career options, like coaching highschool ball. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Cushman.
