Patrice Fernholz
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching 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. Fernholz also throws a screwball. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He attacks lefties and righties the same way.
Defense & Hitting His move to first isn't very good, but his delivery is fairly quick and he isn't overly vulnerable to the stolen base. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Fernholz is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Fernholz has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Fernholz as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Fernholz.
