Paul Mankamyer
Relief Pitcher | Ottawa Milk Men
Pitching Mankamyer is a control pitcher; when he's on he has pinpoint control. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. When his release point drops below three-quarters, his fastball tends to hang in the strike zone. Mankamyer gives up his share of home runs, but is always around the plate and doesn't give up many walks. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He has a quick pickoff move, but sometimes concentrates on pitching so much that he forgets about runners. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Mankamyer is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Mankamyer has some pop in his swing.
