Steve Hulleston
Relief Pitcher | Moose Jaw Dragons
Pitching Control is his calling card, as he works ahead of hitters without leaving the ball over the middle of the plate. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. His fastball is just average, and therefore he relies heavily on placing it in different parts of the strike zone or setting it up with his sinker. He attacks lefties and righties the same way.
Defense & Hitting Hulleston has an impressive presence on the mound, always taking an aggressive posture. Hulleston does an average job of holding runners. Hulleston is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Hulleston has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Moose Jaw Dragons have been known to use Hulleston as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook The Moose Jaw Dragons were smart, they locked Hulleston up to a long term contract. Hulleston has impressed at the A-ball level. Look for the Moose Jaw Dragons to give him a shot in Double or Triple A before the year is up. I really like what this guy brings to the table.
