Sherman Gumpert  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Though Gumpert can't just blow the ball by hitters, he has some giddyup on his fastball. He keeps the ball down and gets a lot of groundballs. Because he can't overpower hitters, Gumpert has to fool them instead. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
Gumpert is a reliable fielder who doesn't get rattled on defensive plays and is rarely out of fielding position. His slow delivery makes him fairly easy to steal upon, but Gumpert helps himself by holding runners with throws to first, and with slide steps and varied deliveries to home. Gumpert is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gumpert has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Gumpert as a pinch-runner on occasion.
