Anse LeaderSmith
Relief Pitcher | Toronto Polar Bears
Pitching His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Toronto Polar Bears hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.
Defense & Hitting He has quick feet and can catch runners napping at first or second base. LeaderSmith is nothing special in the field. LeaderSmith is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but LeaderSmith has some pop in his swing.
