Jamil Getrost
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Free Agents 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. 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 Getrost's move to first base is average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Getrost is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Getrost has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Getrost to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Getrost.
