Joong-Yang Park
Relief 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. The bottom also falls out of his very good changeup. His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average reliever. He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. Park is nothing special in the field. Park is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Park has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Park as a pinch-runner on occasion.
