Brad Harpur  
Starting Pitcher | West Bay Red Skulls

Pitching
Though Harpur can't just blow the ball by hitters, he has some giddyup on his fastball. Harpur can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His curveball is inconsistent, but when it's sharp it's a solid complement to his fastball. Because he can't overpower hitters, Harpur has to fool them instead. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.

Defense & Hitting
He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Harpur is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Harpur has some pop in his swing.
