Deon McCaa
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. McCaa can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. McCaa has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. When his release point drops below three-quarters, his fastball tends to hang in the strike zone. McCaa also has a decent changeup. Dating back to his days in the minors, McCaa has been more effective against righthanders than lefthanders.
Defense & Hitting He's average in terms of controlling the running game. McCaa is nothing special in the field. McCaa is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but McCaa has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use McCaa as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook If McCaa doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
