Amir McAlmond
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching 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 McAlmond, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. The one thing I must say I don't like about McAlmond is how easily rattled he gets. If he makes a mistake to a hitter and the guy winds up on second or third, you can pretty much count on the guy scoring. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting McAlmond is nothing special in the field. His move to first base continues to be erratic, resulting in poor throws at times. McAlmond is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but McAlmond has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use McAlmond as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook McAlmond flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on McAlmond.
