Darenn Gage
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He has the ability to coax groundballs, which helps him succeed. 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. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Gage is nothing special in the field. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Gage is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gage has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Gage as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Gage flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Gage.
