Kenneth Orchard   Starting Pitcher | West Bay Red Skulls Pitching Orchard's bread and butter pitch is his slider. I've seen it baffle many a lefty. He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! Orchard is a flyball pitcher, which can get him in trouble. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success. Defense & Hitting He's average in terms of controlling the running game. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Orchard is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Orchard has some pop in his swing.           -- Emu Nyman, AA/AAA Scout
