Alan Donbrunst  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
Donbrunst has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. The Free Agents 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. Donbrunst has no endurance. He's good for an inning an outing, tops. 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 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. Donbrunst has a lousy move to first, and opposing managers will run against him all day. Donbrunst is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Donbrunst has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Donbrunst to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Donbrunst.
