Kincaid Meagher
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Meagher can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Meagher has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! Dating back to his days in the minors, Meagher has been more effective against righthanders than lefthanders.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. He hurts himself by falling awkwardly off the mound in his follow-through, which allows too many balls to go through the middle for base hits. Meagher is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Meagher has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Meagher as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Meagher 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 Meagher.
