Peter Garcia
Relief Pitcher | Cobourg Stampeders
Pitching His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Garcia is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Garcia has some pop in his swing.
