Roy Gorbous
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Gorbous also has a decent changeup. Because he can't overpower hitters, Gorbous has to fool them instead. Dating back to his days in the minors, Gorbous has been more effective against righthanders than lefthanders.
Defense & Hitting His slow delivery makes him fairly easy to steal upon, but Gorbous helps himself by holding runners with throws to first, and with slide steps and varied deliveries to home. Gorbous has been regarded as a poor fielder throughout his career, and last year was no different. Gorbous is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gorbous has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Gorbous as a pinch-runner on occasion.
