Javon Ezagui
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Ezagui 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. Ezagui also has a decent changeup. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Ezagui remains one of the best fielding pitchers in the game's history. His pickoff move is merely average. Ezagui is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Ezagui has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Ezagui as a pinch-runner on occasion.
