Mordecai Godwin  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is merely average. Godwin is nothing special in the field. Godwin is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Godwin has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Godwin as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Godwin has below average skills, even for the low minors. One has to expect the Retired or Inactive Players will give him his walking papers before the end of the season. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
