Arlo Irie
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. Irie also has a decent changeup. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Irie, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Irie is nothing special in the field. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Irie is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Irie has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Irie as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Irie.
