Vaughn Frew  
Starting Pitcher | Sask Yellow Jackets

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Frew can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Frew, and that's saying a lot. He traditionally fares better against lefties.

Defense & Hitting
Frew is a reliable fielder who doesn't get rattled on defensive plays and is rarely out of fielding position. He's average in terms of controlling the running game. Frew is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Frew has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
The Sask Yellow Jackets signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Frew like a hot potato if something better comes along.
