Leland Gorter
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching When his release point drops below three-quarters, his fastball tends to hang in the strike zone. If you're going in to face Gorter, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He is an extreme flyball pitcher and gives up more than his share of doubles and home runs. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.
Defense & Hitting Gorter does an average job of holding runners. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Gorter is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gorter has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Gorter as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Gorter 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 Gorter.
