Pretzel Ku   Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players Pitching He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. If you're going in to face Ku, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Ku, and that's saying a lot. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him. Defense & Hitting He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. He doesn't have much of a pickoff move and he's slow getting the ball to home plate out of the set position. Ku is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Ku has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Ku as a pinch-runner on occasion. 2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Ku.           -- Moostard Nyman
