Francis Dwyer  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Dwyer can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Dwyer also has a decent changeup. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is only fair. 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. Dwyer is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Dwyer has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Dwyer as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Dwyer has below average skills, even for the low minors. One has to expect the Retired or Inactive Players will give him his walking papers before the end of the season. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
