Kevin Deninno  
Starting Pitcher | St Paul Pride

Pitching
He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Deninno's fastball was clocked at 95 MPH most of the season and he kept excellent control of it. Deninno 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
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. 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. Deninno is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Deninno has some pop in his swing.
