Justin Leslie
Relief Pitcher | Sask Yellow Jackets
Pitching His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. When you throw a curveball, it better break. Hanging curves equal earned runs in this league, you just can't get away with them. Unfortunately, Leslie's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Leslie fields his position well. He's average in terms of controlling the running game. Leslie is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Leslie has some pop in his swing.
