Alastair Luc
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! If you're going in to face Luc, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. In his first taste of the majors, he has kept lefthanders in check but wasn't as effective against righties.
Defense & Hitting His slow delivery makes him fairly easy to steal upon, but Luc helps himself by holding runners with throws to first, and with slide steps and varied deliveries to home. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Luc is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Luc has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Luc as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Luc.
