Dameon Miles
Starting Pitcher | Vancouver Orcas
Pitching He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Miles can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Miles has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. Miles's fastball is a tick above average, in the 90-91 MPH range on most nights. He comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties.
Defense & Hitting He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. He needs to develop a slide-step, as opponents run freely against him. Miles is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Miles has some pop in his swing.
