Mike Katoll  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He is adept at coaxing groundballs with his sinking fastball and plunging curveball, so hitters try to force him to elevate his deliveries and hope that they'll catch too much of the strike zone. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. His windup, though, makes him an easy target to run on. Katoll is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Katoll has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
I just don't know if The Free Agents are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
