Zane File  
Starting Pitcher | Fredericton Bandits

Pitching
Though File can't just blow the ball by hitters, he has some giddyup on his fastball. File can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Because he can't overpower hitters, File has to fool them instead. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
File remains one of the best fielding pitchers in the game's history. He has quick feet and can catch runners napping at first or second base. File is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but File has some pop in his swing.
