Al Graham  
Relief Pitcher | Halifax Oilers

Pitching
He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. Graham throws a nice sinker... The rookies never seem to know when it's coming. 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 move to first isn't very good, but his delivery is fairly quick and he isn't overly vulnerable to the stolen base. Graham is nothing special in the field. Graham is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Graham has some pop in his swing.
