Scott Krichell
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He's a pretty good ground-ball pitcher, which I like because ground balls stay in the park. Krichell can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Krichell also throws a screwball. He's trying to develop a sinker, but as of yet it's been well below par. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. Krichell is nothing special in the field. Krichell is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Krichell has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Krichell as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook AA isn't the right place for Krichell. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
