Silas Guest
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Guest has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. The Retired or Inactive Players 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. His composure needs work. When Guest starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Guest, and that's saying a lot. Dating back to his days in the minors, Guest has been more effective against righthanders than lefthanders.
Defense & Hitting Guest is agile on the mound, though he makes needless errors when his concentration wanders. He has a poor pickoff move and a slow delivery, so basestealers can run at will. Guest is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Guest has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Guest as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Guest.
