William Parks  
Relief Pitcher | Toronto Polar Bears

Pitching
His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average reliever. Parks also has a decent changeup. Because he can't overpower hitters, Parks has to fool them instead. This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.

Defense & Hitting
His slow delivery makes him fairly easy to steal upon, but Parks helps himself by holding runners with throws to first, and with slide steps and varied deliveries to home. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Parks is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Parks has some pop in his swing.
