Trace Pellin  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His slider is sharp and breaks both horizontally and vertically. Pellin can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. A shaky fielder, he's slow to react to grounders and often looks unsure on his throws to the bases. Pellin is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Pellin has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Pellin as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
AA isn't the right place for Pellin. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
