JoJo Lough
Relief Pitcher | Fort Mac Roughnecks
Pitching He's a finesse pitcher, relying on movement and location. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. His fastball is just average, and therefore he relies heavily on placing it in different parts of the strike zone. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is only fair. He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. Lough is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Lough has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Fort Mac Roughnecks have been known to use Lough as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook The Fort Mac Roughnecks were smart, they locked Lough up to a long term contract. Lough has impressed at the A-ball level. Look for the Fort Mac Roughnecks to give him a shot in Double or Triple A before the year is up. I really like what this guy brings to the table.
