Yoav Muckle  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
When his release point drops below three-quarters, his fastball tends to hang in the strike zone. He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. Never a hard thrower, Muckle now has games when he can't hit 85 MPH with his fastball. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.

Defense & Hitting
Muckle does an average job of holding runners. Muckle is nothing special in the field. Muckle is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Muckle has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Muckle as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
One has to wonder what Yoav Muckle is doing in AA. In all honesty, he could use a lot of work on the fundamentals in the low minors. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Muckle.
